this is good news my friend. and you can count on us to help. please tell dr
surena that- - he's a very fine man. dr raphael would simply assume that we'd
help.
let me make a proposal: you support good community based care for HIV
disease, and well get the meds and also help train the CWHs
dr leandre and loune are copied too.
we need to build more alliances like this to make things roll. our only
stipulated is that the MSPP be involved, and you're already doing that. i said as
much when i met with the missionaries from marmont . . .
bravo!
best
paul

During the
recent Haitian medical mission, a remote part of the very poor Central province
of Haiti was "adopted" by GWU medical students who intend to have a
continuing participation in its Health Care screening and primary care.
Coordinators from the medical student side are
Danielle M Foster and Julie Turig, and from the MPH side Bryan J Schaaf.
The next
mission may be as early as December and repeated, possibly in May. We will try to split it to 3/3 Med/MPH
students for the first and no more than a dozen for the second, and some
continuing care from outpatient to inpatient care may follow in the Cange
Hospital of Paul Farmer as the relationship evolves.
I enclose, FYI, a proposal for this
development for a student site for entry level health care students, in a
population both close by and destitute a
"cheaper and closer Africa next door," within the same time zone.
