World Nomads Create Scholarships Photography 2018 Applications Hope Hospital Hope Hospital by Mike Chen (United States of America) Bangladesh Shares Facebook Twitter Rohingya refugees wait to be seen at Hope Hospital’s field clinic in Kutupalong refugee camp. Frequently deemed an “ethnic cleansing” of the Muslim minority by the Myanmar military, the Rohingya refugee crisis has resulted in the influx of almost 1 million refugees into Bangladesh escaping genocide. A boy is seen and vaccinated for diphtheria - a lethal and contagious disease common in the crammed living conditions of refugee camps. As a remote people from the Rakhine state of western Myanmar, the Rohingya are hesitant to turn to western medicine as they have had little to no previous exposure. Many patients arrive seeking treatment for chronic pain and fatigue - a widespread symptom of mental trauma and declining living conditions. A boy and his mother with these numerous symptoms can only be given generic painkillers and ointment to help ease the pain. Many symptoms mysterious to the Rohingya are simple solutions at the clinic. Claiming her poor vision as a sickness, the boy’s mother is simply farsighted - she examines the wrinkles of her hands in disbelief after she is given universal glasses. The clinic sees hundreds of patients a day and save countless lives. Amazing self-funded doctors, nurses, and Bangladeshi locals volunteer their time to make Hope Hospital possible - they’re the ones making a difference.
