Summary[edit]

Description

International Development Secretary Justine Greening looks on as a three-year-old boy is checked over for suspected pneumonia at the Australian-run field hospital at Tacloban in the Philippines.

The UK deployed a 12-strong team of surgeons and other medical staff in response to Typhoon Haiyan, who've all received additional training to prepare them for working in a disaster zone. The scheme, known as the UK International Emergency Trauma Register is funded by the Department for International Development.

Six of the British doctors joined their Australian counterparts in Tacloban, one of the worst-hit areas, whilst the other six were deployed onto HMS Daring, which has been taking them to remote, hard to reach islands around the Philippines, where many communities have been in need of medical assistance.
