Their health is extremely precarious. Twenty percent are severely malnourished. In all, nearly 2,000 children today are being cared for by humanitarian organizations present in Brazzaville.
Malnutrition is equally severe in adults.
Those who are returning now are exhausted and there are many victims of violence among them. We feel that this number is an underestimate. MSF has 11 international volunteers working in Brazzaville, Congo Republic. MSF is the world's largest independent international medical relief agency aiding victims of armed conflict, epidemics, and natural and man-made disasters, and others who lack health care due to geographic remoteness or ethnic marginalization in more than 80 countries.
