How a country like Somalia with limited resources is trying to do its best to help Italy fight the pandemic
Despite grappling with deadly insurgencies, the sixth highest poverty rate in the world and massive internal displacement, Somalia sent 20 of its medical experts to Italy in an attempt to boost the European country's fight against the coronavirus, which has wreaked havoc on its healthcare system, claiming thousands of lives.
“I am heartened by the fact that a group of Somali doctors has made itself available to support the exhausting work that the doctors involved in the Covid-19 emergency are carrying out in recent weeks, while much of Europe has literally turned its back on us,”a Somali-Italian engineer, who has been known for his efforts to establish connections between the two countries.
"Twenty volunteer doctors from National University in Mogadishu are registered at Italy's Embassy and will go to Italy to help the country's fight against coronavirus,"Orongo said that his government is responding to Italy’s help call.
