Sudan: Bicycle teams are key in controlling malaria outbreak

Over the past five months, 49,262 people in the Bahr-el-Ghazal province of south Sudan have been treated for malaria by Medicines Sans Frontiers (MSF) medical teams that are using bicycles to get to areas that have been isolated by recent severe floods. A total of 71,006 people have been treated in the area - including 800 severe cases - when figures from the fixed facilities are included.
