Holistic Care to Advanced HIV Patients |
|
What is advanced HIV, how does it affect a patient’s body, and why did MSF decide to focus on this disease? We discussed these questions and more about our new project in Bihar in a Facebook Live. |

MSF Media Fellowship |
The MSF Media Fellowship seeks journalists who wish to report on issues related to access to essential medicines as a public health concern. Under this fellowship in 2018, Swagat Yadavar - a New Delhi-based health journalist working for IndiaSpend.com - reported on access to newer and better lifesaving tuberculosis drugs to patients in India and South Africa. |

I support charities based on the cause they work towards, how efficiently they are run, and if they are recognised as a trustworthy organisation—and I started supporting MSF based on their standing on these three parameters. Wish MSF all the best in their efforts globally and in India. |
