Even though there are multiple limitations to helping in conflict zones and #coronavirus spreading in displaced populations in #Syria, we are doing all we can to do just that.

We have sourced diagnostic kits from a lab and are currently pricing them out. 1/4

Our work in #Syria is in a fluid environment where war and political complexity have destroyed infrastructure. We depend on creative local team members to negotiate this chaotic terrain and have learned that it is possible to accomplish incredibly transforming interventions. 2/4

Once given Syrian government permission, the staff on our hospitainer will begin diagnosing #Covid19. In the meantime, they will treat those that present with the same symptoms as presumptive Covid19 and take precautionary measures to slow the spread of the virus in #Syria. 3/4

Our hospitainer has enough funding presently to employ 43 Syrian health professionals and stay be open 24/7 for 30 days, seeing between 200-1000 patients per day. #covid19 #coronavirus #syria #toloveistoact
