At one of the relocation sites for the victims of Cyclone1 Idai in Beira in central Mozambique, Doctor Yang Jing is treating a patient who's suffering from a serious leg ulcer2.
The patient refused to go to local hospitals for help, saying she was worried the doctors there would advise simply amputating her wounded leg.
However, the size and pain from her leg ulcer has been relieved significantly thanks to the careful treatment by Doctor Yang Jing over the past several days.
"I still remember when she first came to me, she could barely walk. She was dragging her leg with the big ulcer. Now, after three days' treatment, her conditions are getting better."
Yang Jing is one of the medical staffers who is assigned to the Chinese team, which has been sent out to Mozambique by China's Ministry3 of Emergency Management.
The 65-member rescue team arrived at Beira on March 25th.
Since then, it has been providing search and rescue support, medical aid and epidemic4 prevention assistance for the cyclone-hit country.
Over the past week, Chinese medical staff have given medical assistance to over 3-thousand patients.
Local resident Abido, who suffered an injury to his shoulder when Cyclone Idai was ravaging5 the region, says the Chinese rescue team is playing a significant role in reducing local people's suffering.
"I'm very happy that the Chinese rescue team is here to help us. The medical staff from the team have treated many patients, including me. You know, local hospitals are crowded with patients that are in urgent need of treatment and they failed to take care of us. Yet the Chinese team is here, providing support. I like them very much."
It's been over two weeks since Idai rampaged across central Mozambique.
Since then, hundreds-of-thousands of survivors6 have been packed into camps, schools or other facilities, leading to serious concerns about disease outbreaks.
The number of cholera7 and diarrhea cases is on the rise, with a cholera outbreak being feared as well.
The Chinese teams have been carrying out disinfection work every day at the relocation sites to curb8 the likely spread of disease.
Albert Muanido is a public health technician in Mozambique.
"I think that's very good, because we need that. Here at Beira, we have many cases of diarrhea and cholera. And with this sanitation9, I think it'll be a great thing for decreasing the cases. We don't have cases here. But with this help that they are giving us, we'll reduce the effect of diarrhea from this local community."
At least 139 cholera cases have already been confirmed in Mozambique.
The World Health Organization says around 900-thousand oral cholera vaccines10 are due to arrive later on this Monday.
A major vaccination11 campaign will begin this week as well.

受“飓风伊代”影响,莫桑比克中部城市贝拉设置了许多灾民安置点,杨敬医生正在其中一个安置点治疗一位腿部严重溃烂的病人。
这位病人拒绝去当地医生就诊,因为她害怕医生会让她截肢。
然而,经过杨敬医生的悉心治疗,她腿上的溃烂已经有了明显的好转,疼痛也明显减轻。
“第一天来,我印象中她走路特别困难,几乎是拖着一条腿来的。经过三天的治疗后,她的情况有了好转。”
杨敬是中国医疗队的一名医护人员,这支救援队由中国应急管理部派到莫桑比克执行任务。
整个团队有65名成员,于3月25日抵达贝拉。
从那天开始,救援队一直为遭受气旋袭击的莫桑比克提供搜寻搜救支持、医疗救护支持以及防疫援助。
在过去的一周中,中国医务人员为3000多名患者提供了医疗援助。
当地居民安比鲁在气旋“伊代”袭击他的家乡时伤到了自已的肩膀,他说,中国救援队的到来极大地减轻了当地人民的痛苦。
“我很开心中国医疗队能来这里,因为他们在这帮助了很多人,包括我在内,现在这里的医院人满为患,不可能给每一个人治疗,而中国队来到了这里帮助我们,我很喜欢他们。”
两周前,气旋“伊代”袭击了莫桑比克中部地区。
从那时起,成千上尤的幸存者挤到了帐篷、学校以及其他基础设施中进行避难,这也引发了疾病爆发的担忧。
霍乱和腹泻病例不断增加,人们开始担心会爆发霍乱疫情。
中国救援队每天在可能爆发疫情的安置点进行消毒防疫工作。
艾尔伯特·莫尼多是莫桑比克当地的公共卫生专家。
“我认为我们确实需要像这样的消杀工作。贝拉已经出现了霍乱病例,也有很多腹泻患者。开展防疫消杀有助于控制疾病传播。这个安置点暂时还没有出现霍乱病例,但确实防患于未然,消杀有助于缓解腹泻对该安置点的负面影响。”
莫桑比克至少已经确诊139起霍乱病例。
世界卫生组织表示,周一将有约90万只霍乱疫苗运抵当地。
大规模的疫苗接种工作也将于本周开始。
