Sohaib is placed on a weighing scale to check his weight. Sohaib, a 6-month-old baby and his mother travelled from Badghis AB Kamari village to the city of Herat – a four-hour-long journey to seek care at the Herat Regional Hospital. Sohaib has been diagnosed with severe malnutrition and chicken pox and will be admitted to the hospital for care. Before coming to MSF, Sohaib was also taken to a local hospital in Badghis but they could not admit him since it did not have the capacity to treat him. “Sohaib's father is in Iran and we are struggling to survive. I have three other children but I can’t afford basic food for them,” Sohib’s mother says.
