When Jette Po-Major and her medical colleagues went to Samar last year to help victims of Typhoon Haiyan they were stunned by a realization. Most of the residents had never had any medical or dental treatment.
“Meeting people who have never seen a doctor in their entire life is something incredible for us,” Jette told me then as she narrated her experience in the aftermath of what we locally call Typhoon Yolanda.
