Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Health facilities in Maridi County of Western Equatoria State have run out of drugs for two months now according to Asiki Festus, the County Director of Health.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have numerous challenges, in the first place the drugs are not there, the medicines are not there, these are the challenges that we are facing,\u201d Festus told Eye Radio.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last consignment we received was around July and we have received the report of getting another consignment which is C 21, but of course this consignment is only coming for seven health facilities.<\/p>\n

He said the county received the last supply of drugs in July this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the challenges, of course, we raised through the state government and it will be the one to raise it to the national government.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maridi County previously had 31 functioning health facilities.<\/p>\n

These include 23 Primary Healthcare Units, 7 Primary Healthcare Centers, and one Maridi hospital.<\/p>\n

But most were rendered dysfunctional with only 8 facilities currently working after the Health Pool Fund pulled out in August last year.<\/p>\n
