- W4248383460 abstract "We appreciate your decision to publicise the ongoing tsunami relief campaign in Sri Lanka (Jan 15, p 204).1Brown H Treating the injured and burying the dead.Lancet. 2005; 365: 204-205Summary Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (5) Google Scholar We want the world to know what we are doing for our people. The students of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Kelaniya, participated in the campaign in the immediate aftermath of the disaster. With help from the media and military, which helped us identify areas which were the worst hit and provided logistical support to get us into those areas, we set up nine health camps in Galle, Matara, Tangalle, Hambantota, and Kalmunai. The people who attended the initial camps had lost everything, including long-term medication. Several had multiple injuries and were in a state of numb disbelief about what had happened to them. Many were inconsolable over the loss of loved ones, and we felt helpless to deal with the psychological trauma. The number of bodies lying around was frightening and the stench almost unbearable. Over the next few days, although the psychological trauma worsened, the pattern of physical ailments changed and we had to deal with people who had fever, diarrhoea, and chest infections. We did not encounter a significant shortage of antibiotics. The present situation, as we see it, is one that should mainly concentrate on social and psychological rehabilitation. For example we feel that children should be sent back to school as soon as possible. We are at present collecting funds to buy books and school uniforms for children in the Galle and Matara areas, and the Teachers Association of our faculty has collected funds to rebuild a primary school in Matara. I declare that I have no conflict of interest." @default.
