Dear Editor,
What the minister said about some Gambian doctors is very true in my observation. I believe that some do steal drugs from hospitals and open pharmacies in town.
I went to the Soma hospital on Monday, what I saw on the ground is really shocking. There is a huge lack of medical equipment and supplies.
Once you enter the wards, all you see is broken beds etc…There are about 3 pharmacies in soma and they are all owned by workers at the hospital. When you go to the hospital, there is no medication, all they do is to refer you to the pharmacies.
About the three photos enclosed, the first one is located on the trans Gambia highway just after GNPC. The other one is located at Behind the soma Gamtel branch and the last one is located just after the soma police station.
