In a major step to boost the health-care assistance to earthquake survivors who have been unreachable since last week’s disaster, the World Health Organization in coordination with the Nepalese government and other humanitarian partners has established a new field office in the Gorkha district of Nepal. From there, WHO and the national authorities will be able to coordinate land and air support to reach medicines, health care professionals and other life-saving resources to some of the most remote regions impacted by the earthquake.
