Over 570,000 Sudanese and Chadian people fleed Darfur to converge to the eastern entry points of Chad. Chad is the most affected country by the crisis in Sudan as it hosts 52.7% of Sudanese refugees, with thousands of new arrivals every week. These refugees live in numerous formal and informal camps located in 11 health districts across four provinces (Ennedi East, Ouaddaï, Sila and Wadi Fira). In the camps, access to essential health services is disrupted due to difficult physical access, limited human resources, medicines and the inability to afford health care. This complex humanitarian situation is exacerbated by epidemics of dengue fever and measles. A total of 3,478 people were injured. The are being operated on with the support of MSF-F, PUI, ICRC and an international emergency team deployed by the WHO.
