In October 2005 a devastating earthquake sent a shock wave through South
Asia. On 11 November 2005, the Australian Defence Force (ADF) deployed
a contingent of medical specialists to provide medical assistance to
the people of the Dhanni region.
During
their deployment ADF personnel have successfully treated over one thousand
injuries and put in place an immunisation program for the children of
the Dhanni region which will have benefits well into the coming years.
On 6 March
2006, the Primary Health Care Teams will depart Pakistan and return
to Australia after completing a successful mission.
