Ten Months After Mass Uprising, Suffering Persists at Dhaka Medical College Hospital
Ten months after the July mass uprising that brought an interim government to power, the promised healthcare reforms remain largely invisible — with Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) exemplifying the continued crisis. In Ward 204, Bed 34, Farhana Nisha, severely injured in a motorcycle accident, lies in pain with dried blood on her face, unattended for two days. Her husband had to pay BDT 500 to secure a hospital bed.
