Abstract
Abstract and background: Refugees and migrants experience both ceremonious and unceremonious barricades to obtain health care.
More than 11.3 million people have been displaced—the largest number in the world—with over 2.3 million displaced into neighboring countries, including Chad, South Sudan, Egypt, Libya, Ethiopia, the Central African Republic, and Uganda.
To provide a clearer distinction between the health situation in Sudan and in neighboring countries, this multi-country situation report will now focus on the health situation and WHO’s regional response in neighboring countries affected by the conflict. The Sudan health situation and WHO’s response covered separately in reports issued by the WHO Sudan Country Office
