These two young girls, one of them with blisters in her face, were among the almost 2,000 people who sought medical attention in yesterday’s Bangsamoro Medical and Surgical Mission in Takepan, Pikit.
Dr. Benedict Valdez, head of the Maharlika Charity Foundation medical mission, said he saw apparent neglect by government of the poorest of the poor who appeared to have not been touched by doctors for many years.
Yesterday, almost 1,000 patients were given medical attention while 52 persons with cysts of varying sizes were operated on.
The medical mission continues for the second day Sunday, March 3.
