A doctor in a besieged zone in Damascus in Syria explains, with his own voice, how he’s struggling to treat the patients that keep pouring in. He’s had to teach himself some surgical skills online, notably with YouTube videos. It depicts the desperate situation, but also the determination of a medical professional, using the Youtube platform in a very unusual, but lifesaving way. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare.
