Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On June 25, 2018, President Shein of Zanzibar, Tanzania, hosted a welcome event for the Chinese medical team to send off the old in the presidential palace. He cordially met with the 27th Chinese medical team who is about to return home after completing the mission and welcomed the 28th Chinese medical team. The team completed its service on July 11, 2019. In the past year, the 27th medical team has made outstanding contributions in training talents, organizing free consultations, and establishing rules and regulations, and has greatly improved the local medical service level. In just one year, they completed more than 3,000 operations and tens of thousands of outpatient clinics. They used their rest time to conduct free clinics in remote rural areas and communities, and provided training for local medical staff. The 28th Medical Team will continue to work effectively and achieve excellent results.
