August 2008: Myanmar Emergency Relief

By Flora Smith - Office Manager/ PR Assistant, August 13, 2008 04:30 PM

RI is providing urgent medical care to thousands of survivors in the wake of the devastating Myanmar cyclone disaster. With an office in Yangon RI has assembled a team of local doctors and health professionals, and working together they are providing life-saving services to the most vulnerable and help contain the rapid spread of infectious disease.

Currently several medical teams are working in four RI-supported health clinics in South Dagon. To reach remote populations, RI has also established mobile clinics to provide emergency treatment to those unable to access available resources. Recently, RI has expanded its operations to damaged areas including the Kunchan Gone township and outlying areas.
