The temporary closure of HUM has not put an end to care. From Belladère to Saint-Marc, Zanmi Lasante teams are adapting, taking over and keeping our mission alive.

Every month, Zanmi Lasante laboratories perform more than 140,000 tests, helping 30,000 patients gain access to a reliable, rapid diagnosis that is essential to their care.

At Hôpital Bon Sauveur de Cange, more than 150 people took part in a day of education, free testing, and mosquito net distribution to better protect themselves against malaria.
