UNDP and Global Fund launch medical waste facilities in Sudan
Original: UNDP and Global Fund make healthcare safer for 2 million people with launch of medical waste facilities in Sudan
The United Nations Development Programme and the Global Fund have opened medical waste treatment facilities in Sudan, a step they say will make healthcare safer for around 2 million people. The initiative is aimed at reducing infection risks from discarded needles, syringes and other clinical waste in a health system strained by conflict.
Why now: Concerns over Sudan's collapsing health system and disease risks amid the ongoing conflict make improved medical waste management newsworthy.
