Some baptize them the "boulevards of lying down", others more simply the "dying homes".

Often accused of corruption, false diagnoses, incompetence, kidnapping, can we trust African hospitals?

And if the patients stopped, in the face of the tragedies that multiply, to rely solely on the will of God?

What are their legal remedies?

What is the viability of the hospitals deserted by the leaders?

How to make health a priority?
