What health system for nomadic populations?

Abstract:
In Niger, independent mobile health units intended to meet the needs of nomadic populations have proved ineffectual and excessively costly. Primary health care services should be based on fixed structures with a reasonably wide radius of coverage and sufficient flexibility and mobile capacity to fulfil their obligations to all sectors of the population.
