Health care for nomads too, please.

M A Omar1.   

Abstract

Pastoral nomadism, a way of life in many developing countries, especially in Africa, has received little attention from planners, economists and governments, partly because the communities in question present what are perceived as difficult logistical problems. Yet it is incumbent on the authorities to develop practical and feasible approaches to the delivery of primary health care for nomadic populations.
