    Quote:

    Thousands of cancer patients in Uganda will be left untreated for months after the nation's only radiotherapy machine broke down.

    It has triggered public criticism about underfunding in the health system weeks after the president's re-election.

    The device was bought in 1995 and sited at the main Mulago Referral hospital.

    Things like this emphasise the need to organise worldwide, both because workers in Uganda are just as in need as anywhere else, but also a reminder that, as with greece, an economic seige kills (they nearly ran out of insulin and thyroxin).
