Grant Description
On April 15, 2018, the Chinese government sent the 6th medical team to aid Malawi. These medical professionals on the team were sent from Xi'an Jiaotong University Second Affiliated Hospital.
On December 8, 2018, the 6th Chinese medical team held a clinic and donated supplies to Kadi/Kadidi/Caddi Village Medical Center in Malawi. More than 150 patients were diagnosed and treated. From April 4 to 6, 2019, the team held a disaster relief clinic in the wake of severe flooding. The team provided services to approximately 900 people.
The 14th Bureau of China Railway also provided tables and chairs to help with the disaster relief.
They conducted laboratory tests, gave diagnoses, provided surgical treatment for local patients, and gave free medicine. A total of 246 victims and nearly 400 students were provided with medical assistance services on the 5th.
On the 6th, the medical team also donated a large amount of soap, hand sanitizer, mosquito repellent, wind oil, cooling oil and other hygiene and anti-mosquito products to help them improve their sanitary conditions and enhance their ability to prevent and control infectious diseases. On the 6th, about 390 villagers received treatment.
On May 4, 2019, the Chinese Embassy in Malawi held a hail & farewell ceremony for the sixth and seventh medical teams.
Ambassador Liu Hongyang, a representative of Shaanxi Provincial Health Commission, all members of the two medical teams, and Embassy staff attended the meeting.
A summary of the work of the past year highlighted voluntary consultation activities, especially the successful holding of two large-scale consultation activities.
Ambassador Liu pointed out that the work of the medical team to assist Malawi should continue to be carried out in accordance with the eight major actions of China-Africa cooperation proposed by President Xi Jinping at the Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation.
The ambassador awarded the sixth batch of medical team members an honorary certificate signed by the Ministry of Health.
