We are raising urgently-needed funds to help respond to the rapidly escalating COVID-19 pandemic in Somaliland. Edna Adan Hospital needs basic protection for staff and essential equipment for treating the growing number of suspected COVID patients.

Story

COVID-19 has come to Somaliland. We do not have testing equipment, so it is impossible to know how many cases there are, but Edna Adan is reporting significant numbers of patients arriving at the Edna Adan Hospital with fever, coughs, and other symptoms associated with COVID-19. The hospital needs basic protective equipment for their staff, who are not used to working with highly infectious diseases (they are maternity doctors and nurses!), as well as test kits, ventilators, and more basic equipment and medicines for responding to this pandemic. Your help is urgently needed. We aim to raise at least £10,000 to support Edna Adan Hospital and, through the Somaliland COVID-19 Appeal, other health facilities in Somaliland to respond. We thank you in advance for your help in this difficult time, and hope that you and your loved ones remain safe and well, wherever you are.
