No new cases were recorded three weeks after the initial interventions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond this health emergency, our daily commitment remains focused on providing access to healthcare for marginalized populations, thanks to the primary healthcare project run by the NGO Fairmed, supported by the foundation, which aims to <strong>provide access to quality medical services for the Aka, the Bantu people living in precarious conditions, the Fulani and people with disabilities <\/strong>registered in the health districts of M\u2019ba\u00efki and Boda, in the Lobaye prefecture. Where traditional medicine was once the only solution, these vulnerable groups can now visit health centres and receive quality care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rest of the population in the area also benefits from the project and thus enjoys a strengthened health system, in particular thanks to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>the health voucher system<\/strong>, which covers the costs of consultations, medicines, transport and childbirth for pregnant women, enabling them to receive care throughout their pregnancy and give birth in a health centre surrounded by qualified staff, in a country where only 40% of births are assisted. This approach is particularly effective, encouraging people to use maternal health services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the <strong>management of NTD screening<\/strong>. Thanks to enhanced community surveillance and regular supervision of health personnel, 284 cases of NTDs were detected and treated. These cases include 65 cases of leprosy and 219 cases of yaws. However, due to national stock-outs of essential medicines, difficulties were encountered in treating patients.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>community capacity building<\/strong> and easier access to healthcare through project-supported health facilities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the Central African Republic, 2024 was marked by an outbreak of monkeypox, which struck an already fragile health system.
