Health in the Horn of Africa: a collective response needed.

摘要

In 1984, the world said "never again" to famine in Ethiopia. But, 27 years later, famine has revisited the Horn of Africa. Between July 20 and August 3, the UN declared famine in five regions of Somalia. The disaster is expected to spread to all eight regions of the country in 4-6 weeks and is likely to persist until at least December this year.
