Doctors in Gaza Reuse Medical Implants Cut Out of Victims
Doctors working in Gaza have told The Daily Beast that the situation is now so desperate that they are being forced to use improvised surgical replacements—including medical implants taken out of other patients.
Many procedures, including childbirth, are being carried out without any anesthesia, or even painkillers.
Dr. Khalil Al-Digran, who works at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, told The Daily Beast that there has been “a complete collapse of the health system” and tens of thousands of patients need to be transferred out of Gaza for proper treatment.
