Summary
| Description |
English: Becky Platt is part of the UK's Emergency Medical Team (EMT), which is drawn from volunteer NHS clinicians from across the UK.
The UK EMT was deployed to Kutupalong at the request of the Government of Bangladesh and the World Health Organisation in late December 2017, to help contain an outbreak of diphtheria, one of the world's deadliest diseases. Kutupalong became the world's largest refugee camp in August and September 2017 after a mass exodus of over 750,000 Rohingya people feeling ethnic persecution in neighbouring Burma. By February 2018, thanks to the combined efforts of numerous medical teams working with the Bangladeshi Ministry of Health, the outbreak had been largely brought under control. There were over 5,000 suspected cases and sadly at least 37 deaths - but without the emergency interventions, many more people may have died.
