anni.
In terms of health, strategies have been deployed to address the pressing needs for health care in view of the massive movements of populations in host localities. Indeed, the closed Health and Social Promotion Centers (CSPS) were reopened in city centers as advanced health posts in order to meet the numerous health care needs.
