Need a quick overview of what's happening on Nauru? We provided mental healthcare for 11 months, before being forced to leave by the Nauruan government in October 2018. Our recent report demonstrates extreme mental health suffering by both Nauruan patients, and refugee & asylum seeker patients. ___________ <a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#MSF</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#doctorswithoutborders</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#Nauru</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#mentalhealth</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#refugees</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#patients</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#humanitarian</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#australia</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#petition</a>
"This is a dark day." MSF and @sosmediterranee have been forced to end operations on search and rescue ship Aquarius. Not only has Europe failed to provide search and rescue capacity, it has also actively sabotaged others’ attempts to save lives. The end of Aquarius means more deaths at sea, and more needless deaths that will go unwitnessed. _____________________ Over the past two months, with people continuing to flee by sea along the world’s deadliest migration route, the Aquarius has remained in port, unable to carry out its humanitarian work. This is the result of a sustained campaign, spearheaded by the Italian government and backed by other European states, to delegitimise, slander and obstruct aid organisations providing assistance to vulnerable people. Coupled with the EU’s ill-conceived external policies on migration, this campaign has undermined international law and humanitarian principles. With no immediate solution to these attacks, MSF and SOS Méditerranée have no choice but to end operations by the Aquarius. ________________ Click on the link in bio to read our statement.

“The mental health suffering on<a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#Nauru</a> is among the most severe<a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#MSF</a> has ever seen, including in projects providing care for victims of torture.” Today, we are releasing the first independent medical data demonstrating the extreme<a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#mentalhealth</a> suffering on Nauru, due to the Australian policy of indefinite offshore processing. MSF calls on the Australian government to end this policy and immediately evacuate all refugees and asylum seekers from Nauru. (Link in bio)

Do you know in 2017, 110,000 children died due to AIDS-related illnesses. How long will children with HIV have to continue to suffer or die because of pure indifference? WHO recommends all children diagnosed with HIV to immediately start antiretroviral therapy. But developing countries are struggling to provide HIV positive children with the recommended treatments, because paediatric versions of these ARVs are not available where they are needed. We call for pharma companies to stop dragging their feet & start taking concerted action.  ____________ Click on tge link in bio to read our statement (<a href="https://bit.ly/2rjSHrf" target="_blank" class = "link" >https://bit.ly/2rjSHrf</a>) ____________ © Luca Sola<a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#msf</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#doctorswithoutborders</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#HIV</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#children</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#AIDS</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#PaediatricHIV</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#WHO</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#medicines</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#antiretrovirals</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#pharma</a>
"I am not alone." At MSF's clinic in Mumbai, our team conducts support group meetings every month. In these meetings, patients share their experiences and help each other in coping with stigma and other challenges related to the treatment for drug-resistant tuberculosis. These meetings provide a platform to share and establish a sense of solidarity among the patients. Repost from our counsellor @mystical_river at @doctorswithoutborders clinic in Mumbai. _______________ <a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#msf</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#msfindia</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#doctorswithoutborders</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#mumbai</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#tuberculosis</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#drugresistanttuberculosis</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#counselling</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#patients</a><a href='#' class = 'hashtags'>#stigma</a>
