There is an urgent appeal from the Health Commission of Afrin canton in Rojava. They have pretty serious situation with rabies, snakes and scorpion bites. Next week we shall run a fund-raising campaign, so do not spend too much this weekend! 😉

For now, we need to identify an snake and scorpion serum for them. This is what I got from Efrin (not much). Somebody to translate the Arabic label to the left, please?

It is pretty obvious that we shall not be able to buy that from the Syrian Government Institute. So, we need to find an equivalent and a good source of it (at least 200 doses), possibly in Turkey (logistics). And to get the best price possible.

Your help is needed! If you can help, please leave a reply (moderated) below this post, or send me an email message.

Also, share this post with your friends who deal with tropical medicine etc.

The snake antivenom leaflet. Seems to be pretty local. I was trying to find the manufacturer over Internet, but no contact. Only a note in Wikipedia on alleged chemical & biological weapons production. No, this is not what we try to buy.
