Update: Mr Rocha was flown out on a last-minute Mercy Air flight. Mercy Air is a South African non-profit aviation ministry that was already transporting another critically ill patient and was able to assist. Grateful for their life-saving work in Mozambique.

The new emergency 4x4 transporter for our Zavora clinic with its maternity unit. We do not have an operating theatre yet, and therefore patients in critical condition need transportation to the nearest referral hospital - the dirt roads are challenging!

The rate of drivers seriously or fatally injured that tested positive for marijuana rose an astounding 50% during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
