Pakistan experienced a heavy monsoon season that covered a fifth of the country in floodwater, killing nearly 2,000 people and severely decreasing access to potable water. Diarrheal illnesses that lead to dehydration spread quickly, especially among young children.
Dr. Dolhun and a small team of volunteers traveled to Pakistan to administer DripDrop to severely dehydrated children and infants. They taught distraught parents how to use ORS to treat their own children, equipping them with a life-saving tool.
