The option of the poor during child bearing rules campaign was we
must be patronizing the quacks with reasons.
He stated some reasons…….,
If we manage to send our wives to the well
equipped hospitals in the urban areas, the facilities available in the well
equipped hospitals favor only the rich not the poor because of the cost of
treatment and the unwanted human attitudes which are common in our society. The
privileged workers in our hospitals capitalize on their positions to enrich
themselves thereby making it difficult for the poor to benefit from the rules
of child bearing. Even though the government said free medical care for
everybody, it is never free and no medical team to see that couples follow the rules of child
bearing. So our option is to use the local midwives for our wives to give birth.
Government should extend well equipped hospitals to the rural areas and fish
out the corrupt medical doctors hindering the effort of their campaigns for the
rules of child bearing for couples. I
agree with the rules as tool to achieve good health for families because if I
had followed the rules, I would have known the danger that claimed the life of
my baby before the birth of the baby. If there is anything that can be done to
help the poor couples in the rural areas and poor people generally by addressing
some of the factors I mentioned that hinder the poor from following the rules
of child bearing it will go a long way to solve health problems we are
experiencing today in our society. If there is no good health there is no human
being.
My wife was suppose to give birth on the 16th of April the due
date stated by the scan doctor but she gave birth on the 14th April in a quack hospital because of the factors I mentioned earlier, and they could not even ask of her
antenatal medical test result and she delivered the baby. The baby’s life would have been saved if we
had the opportunity to lay hands on her medical fitness result before the birth
of the baby.
The question is:
1.Can these poor people in the rural and urban
areas follow these rules for family good health and how?
2. Are there government specialist HIV screening team in our rural
areas to save unborn babies because the virus is not only in our urban area?
If
anybody is thinking that the rules are not important and HIV is not real he/she
should look at these results and rethink. My wife was admitted in a hospital for
antenatal on the 3rd of December 2010 and was tested of HIV virus on 7th
December 2010, the Doctor released the result on 11th August 2011
after the birth of the baby. The baby was admitted in another hospital on the 4th
August 2011 and the Doctor discovered the HIV virus on the 5th August 2011 and released the result that same day. The antenatal doctor released her
result on 7th August 2011 while the virus was discovered through the
baby on the 5th August 2011 after the birth of the baby.
1. How would this type of incident help the poor to attain good
health?
2. Will secrecy help to achieve the objectives of campaign
for child bearing rules?
