MONROVIA – Many deaths in Liberia could have been prevented if only the country was well equipped with the infrastructure, equipment and expertise needed to salvage some medical conditions.
As a result, high-ranking officials of government and other big fishes who have the financial means are often evacuated from the country or travel to foreign countries for medical attention.
Two notable medical evacuations recently by the government of Liberia cost US$150,000 each. That was the case of Vice President Jewel Howard Taylor and former Minister of Public Works, the late Mobutu Vlah Nyepan.
