在剩余设施中,有三分之一则完全无法运转。
Of those facilities remaining, one third are not functioning at all.
"High insecurity, difficult terrain and lack of health workers, medicines, equipment and basic amenities such as safe water are making access to essential, lifesaving health care extremely difficult for people in this conflict-affected area," says Dr Wondi Alemu, WHO Representative in Nigeria.

“世卫组织的头等要务是帮助挽救生命,并防止这场危机中估计需要获得医疗援助的600万人患病。”
"WHO’s top priority is to help save lives and prevent sickness among the estimated 6 million people who need health assistance in this crisis."
WHO has been working with the Borno State Ministry of Health to set up a Health Resources Availability Monitoring System (known as HeRAMS) to collect information on the availability of health resources and services in this humanitarian crisis.
