Additional Context: The hospital's MSF-run pediatric ward saw a rise in critical neonatal cases — typically newborns with sepsis, partly due to a lack of adequate hygiene and infection prevention and control at the hospital. In response, MSF began to support the maternity ward in September 2025 that U.S. foreign assistance cuts severely impacted. Though MSF does not accept US government funding, over the course of 2025, their teams have documented the impact of the US government's retreat from the communities they work in.
