Start up Sierra Leone I

Our medical mass screening on March 7th at the National Stadium collapsed. Too many people were desperate to get an appointment for surgery and the crowd stormed the gate. 13 people were seriously injured, including one man who died. The screening had to be stopped and we were not able to connect with people.

The Ministry of Health is not blaming us for what happened and they are eager for us to have another screening as soon as possible.

It has recently been decided that a second screening will take place on Saturday, March 26th, at one the ministries own compounds.

We know that there are lots and lots of people in Freetown with a desperate need for our surgical services and we want to connect with them.

Please pray for a safe and productive screening. Dag
