Article: WHO Providing Health Care To Syrian Refugees In And Outside of The Camps

"WHO Providing Health Care to Syrian Refugees In And Outside of The Camps" focuses on the broad topic of refugees. According to the article, "' The current security situation in Syria along with the aspiration to protect my children forced me to leave my home' said Samira, a middle-aged Syrian mother who fled home with her four children, seven months ago." Samira and her children fled for safety due to the civil war. In Of Beetles And Angels, the book partially focuses on refugees. The memoir states "Please do not blame us. What would you do if chaos approached you on the tortured feet of a million refugees? Could you handle so many?" It's evident that refugees are the focus on both the article and the book.

The article mainly focused on health care for Syrians. It's said that "the four clinics inside the camps along with the mental health care center offer offer medical consultations, education and psychological support to the Syrian refugees." This means that the clinics and the mental institute are working to help refugees in clinics. In OBAA, it's stated that "The first time Beth saw us, she saw trouble. My father lay shivering under a blanket, his head aflame in fever, and Beth, a nurse, knew instantly that he had malaria." This means that medical help was needed for both types of refugees.

There are many ways war can affect groups or individuals. In Mina's article, it's stated that Syrian refugee children must give up their education to support their families. This is because the civil war has taken family members. Children will be left out on education because of the war. In Carter's article, it is made known that around 5,000 refugees are screened for America. There's many more refugees Germany yet the Obama Administration aims to screen at least 110,000 as a goal. War affects people in a way that they must hope to seek a safe resettlement along with the support needed for those families.
