This baby
was born approximately five minutes before the photo
was taken. It was born to a healthy mother in a well-run
private clinic.
Though not as well-funded as
its European counterparts, private clinics in Ghana are cleaner
and are run more efficiently than the government clinics.
The government health system, on the
other hand, is cumbersome, archaic and under-funded. The
filing system is not computerised and patients are kept in
a long queues for treatments.
