Dear Friend:
The clinic has been temporarily closed during this difficult time. Public transportation was shut down and people only allowed out of their homes once every 3 weeks. The country is in a policed state and this has caused a domino of difficulties.
Transportation is opening back up. This may not seem like a big deal to us in America, but in Honduras, the poor do not have a car. They depend solely on a bus, taxi, or their own 2 legs to get around. As the clinic is far out in the country, it is very difficult for them to walk anywhere on their allowed day out.
In the meantime the clinic funds have continued to pay staff salaries, keep the place clean and relocate our supplies to the hospitals. We have also been supplying the poor public hosptials with masks and medical supplies so they can take care of the patients.
The clinic is now being resupplied and being made ready for inspection to re-open. Aside from the virus, people have not been able to get their medications for hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, and all other manner of normal medical problems. All of this is being made available with the reopening.
We hope the goverment tape and regulations will be favorable at this time. They need us and they know it. Thank you for your assistance.
