Conclusion People in Sudan (and in even larger numbers in poor areas of the returnees in the South), die from diseases that are largely treatable and preventable with often simple medications and resources that are almost taken for granted in Australia

HOSTS Medication Campaign Four Easy Steps… 1. Choose a medicine bottle or box. 2. Fill the bottle or box with the money marked on the label—fundraise however you feel! 3. Return the bottle/box to HOSTS and see that money work for the people of Sudan. 4. Return to Step 1 again… Note: Medication Pricing The cost of the medications is real. The cost quoted is from the Federal Government PBS or S100 scheme. These medications is what the Australian government pays for. We are the lucky country not to have to pay for this ourselves.
