Urgent medical assistance still required in Pakistan

 
Some remote communities still have not been reached by relief workers and those that have been reached still have urgent requirement of medical supplies and expertise, as well as shelter and food. With winter rapidly approaching many communities face a desperate situation.

Dr Manzoor Butt of Rawalpindi is assisting on the ground and is now attached to the 10 Corp Pakistan Army and is a good conduit for providing assistance where it is needed. This can be in the form of medical assistance as well as catering to the human needs of food and shelter. He can be reached at: manzor60@yahoo.com if anyone is able to help.

The Pakistan situation is worse than that of the tsunami earlier in the year as far as needs of survivors are concerned so we urge those who are able to assist, to do so.
