Gaza healthcare system no longer functioning

The emergency co-ordinator at Doctors Without Borders, Marie-Aure Perreaut, said that the Gaza healthcare system has now “completely collapsed”.
Speaking to Al Jazeera, she said that there are only “extremely limited” services left in Gaza.
“The healthcare system is completely collapsed at the moment. It is difficult for us to keep up with the constant influx of the wounded,” she said.
“On top of this, it’s extremely difficult for the colleagues to be coming through the emergency room (ER) because they are the ones who are being wounded. Just about an hour ago, one of our colleagues came to the ER badly injured together with his family,” she added.
“It is extremely traumatising.”
