for many in the west african country of guinea life can be quite a struggle. a quarter of the country is covered in forest and the government has neglected roads and basic services. constant delays paralyze the nation's economy. and yet guinea is a rich country rich in iran gold and diamonds. but most canadians never see the benefit. today pierre on his assistant bus transport medicines in record time from the

capital conakry to kiss a dugu on the other side of the country so we're going to know. guinea is still plagued by serious diseases like polio defeat area and rabies. the pharmacy's primary concern is delivering the vaccines to where they're needed before the climate spoils them. with no refrigerated truck or ice balls packed his vaccines in a box with just enough ice for the trip. to. focus on the bus and. the next challenge is getting the vaccines to a porter at the bus step of a downpour has caused huge traffic jams. was so pleased to see. my little sister.

guinea's capital conakry is at a standstill. the taxis stuck in traffic for hours as. vendors and beggars try to make the most of the situation. good. things are going to. your south your bus and here them cannot come to simply be with you to make sure that the money you can get goes. after 6 hours in traffic the taxi finally reaches the bus to. follow with careful instructions the pharmacist hands the vaccines to the owner of the bush taxi a bus. it was going to be for the family event and on

monday they are contacted by the bank at the. front some people to just look at the person to decide on what message the fragile vaccines are placed under the front seat. it was. one do not come over so if you need to do what you want to so then on to new day let's run a limited. government. i. gainey has no railway on planes or prohibitively expensive taxis are the most common form of transport but drivers take advantage by overcharging clients. this passenger tries to travel on credit with her baby. you cannot get anything done more damage. than that you're going to get

yes i'm worried about me and now and the driver feels sorry for her and a deal is struck but another passenger is more of a problem he's hurt his hand and wants a window seat. where you can see the most in. most you must include the man in the baseball cap has reserved the seat. in what. was this was a sensitive moment thinking that lucas doesn't really exist is no easy. to lose he lives here one certainty dearly departed probably isn't going to hear the money that. will finally 9 passengers 2 babies and 2 drivers a crammed into the taxi. a bass takes pride in his car which is 22 years old. was good enough for the never to connect

to you then pass it on to something else i think until the moment the bubble. the passengers with the vaccines finally leave the capital. the ice meant to preserve the vaccines has now been melting for 8 hours if the driver doesn't make it to do go in 16 hours the vaccines will be useless and might as well be thrown away the 690 kilometer road to kiss a dugu is strewn with potholes few drivers respect the rules of the road accidents are frequent. even before leaving the capital the driver's patience is tested.

the 2 drivers constantly swap over. the boot is not exactly comfortable. 2 more hours a wasted in traffic. the deadline for the vaccine lou is. the drivers decide to drive through the night. since the start of the journey there's been a strong smell of petrol in the car still no one seems concerned. the good news you can see. but whose job it is a simple fact that uncle jimmy something. the petrol fumes might keep the evil spirits away but highway robbers a real threat. yet you seem a little bit savvy to envy people who live here in france i think this up. your mum

did military road because you thank you so much me do. you feel you got a consultancy here for you do you go to. the scots think if you do go but if. the stop is a welcome relief to the cramped passages their bodies a and their stomachs are empty. and jeff think only. you. can give them and how do you. know you were going to what road is known. as a precaution they wait until daylight before setting off again. by

the early morning the vaccines have been on the road for 22 pounds. even so sharif proceeds with caution. pentagon thought to be on your feet. but not. that. good judgment at these times is critical. the gamble seems to have paid off after 24 hours the taxi arrives in kiss a do good. but luck is against them. not the pharmacy is closed the ice has melted and the vaccines urgently need to be refrigerated. but the money going to them to open up was up with you know i. don't know their man got

no no i'm going to advise you get one foot out. the pharmacist is on his way but one passenger is tired of waiting. for think it might be one of the big open your mom put your money now you could make them up like yeah man i got them where i'm sure they are going because i'm not like that i didn't know that over and over again now but. leave it on. the pharmacist arrives an hour later he quickly refrigerate the vaccines relief all round ok. most villages and some towns in guinea lack the most basic services. kissa do go and it's $200000.00 inhabitants get only a few hours of electricity a week. the main hospital has an emergency unit that's reserved for pregnant women

who can't. get it that mary i'm a nurse dashes off to the hospitals only ambulance the vehicle was donated by unicef 13 years ago without the means to maintain it it's a miracle it's still running i'm. due to the high price of petrol it can only be used once a day. can bring us up and down the shaft. process duchamp. the strength dance again ahmed don't profit out of it so that's going to baffle set up a raft. 2 of these little. number it that they're what they're the outcomes that it out now. nurses waste

a lot of time tracking down patients in the bush there are no signs indicating the names of roads all villages. going to you know coma if you haven't got a way where mark where the bottom of the. book come to you know what i mean i don't know i know a little known about. 2 hours later and they still haven't located the pregnant woman. only go back to the parking lot of her house it was not there. to make things worse the old ambulance breaks down. oh sun come up and do it now. but did anybody think you did. dishes out of court of course having fun with them. oh no madonna no worry about how much money. i got for her.

oh no no no no no. i she waits for makeshift repairs mariyam bumps into the pregnant woman's father in law worried he'd set out on foot looking for help with going to. the medicare. medicaid. services some day and i'm not. after 4 days of agony both mother and baby are in serious danger from the little bit of medical center. that just. popped up. and they put him in. the hot tub. 3 hours after leaving the hospital mariyam can finally attend to the patient.

and the baby is poorly position and the 18 year old girl is in urgent need of a says area. in rural villages grandmothers act as midwives assisting women with childbirth. from their. first. books help or get out of. the back up what about get the fuck out what for the. but that my husband tries to comfort her as best he can there's no stretcher and she lies on the telephone of. the book we're going to talk about the bottom line of this is. that one thing i know my now.

i'm. not. i'm not saying. that's not. somebody who got the. ball. into. the hospital has no running water in the operating room has only one set of surgical clamps but there isn't any statistic a month is soon asleep. this is airy and goes well but the baby isn't breathing. without the aid of respiratory machines the nurses do their best to save the baby but the but. now freddy said you. see. the school. bus in 5 and they have been given funding

for my 1st. don't go places. full days of contractions have paralyzed the mother's legs the hospital has no suitable medicines. your but the things that inspire must in their. routine but if she won't go with him. what about would. to sit down with. them. and. without free public health care many families here are unable to cover basic medical needs the hospital pharmacy sells medicines for a 10th the price of the private sector but even these prices can be an affordable.

concept to answer was i i i i was in guinea 5 dollars can change your life. maybe it's the camera or genuine sympathy but in the end the pharmacist pays for the medicine himself. there's enough to treat his wife for a week. any longer and it'll be up to the husband to come up with more money. according to unicef $15300.00 babies and $3800.00 women die in childbirth each year in guinea. getting medicines to where they're needed is a real problem. these medicines are on their way to a dispensary in the middle of the jungle. this won't be the 1st risky journey has

taken. to get it when i was. going to tell you about it and if you want to have a you know what. i don't think you know yeah be able to deal with the. front up. for you sometimes you need something. you money and somebody to tell you we.

did you know my days over is what you want to be so we're going to get it. right here. maybe. the mule track is actually a regional road they can excuse to do goo and 45 kilometers away. was done yesterday that my apologies to anyone out of a. going on like i was in a few days might even get him. at each ball the rhythm of the spades receives and it's always the same team. is encouraged.

unlike his truck stops its engine lacks power it will get to be that wasn't about it but then somebody else people. see the minute bradish i get this week but i feel no better to a bond to fund the build up as i don't want burn time into i could define it wanting it only when i pulled it off and i bought it when i got it that's what i meant. in guinea everything

has multiple uses. to put us all what i said duty on the bus. in the community and i said that's. something i would like. to make. by nightfall they'd been driving for 10 hours. from. my. the nurse at the dispensary collects the packages of meds and. he's been expecting them for 3 months and the books is

a quite small. he hopes they'll be enough to replenish his stock. if. you will say it is you believe it or give it you don't belong to the on another sample of live. among the medicine benjamin has received of vaccines against measles diptheria tetanus and polio he'll start vaccinating children 1st thing in the morning as he has no means of conserving the precious vaccines. by the electricity. if. free will so far hasn't it.

got it into. the will of. this 2 year old is too weak to be vaccinated. designed to dili. that's in my. family mad. my would. make. us i mean it's into.

will be. in guinea one in 10 children dies before reaching the age of falling. don't scarcely ever visit these remote villages. benjamin tries to fill the void he's only a nurse but an experienced one skilled nurses like him are invaluable. the village is always grateful.

in a country beset by poverty and lack of infrastructure. sometimes we risk our own lives in taking these roads with cattle saving lives is a dangerous job it's a vaccine so it's only good 24 hours there are patients waiting because medicines for most of the pain life's worth risking a week ago one of the gang stops some vehicles on the road at that can do it with weapons risking it all guinea on al-jazeera. one of the really special things about working crowd is here is that even as a camera woman i get to have so much empathy and contribution to a story as well we cover this region better than anyone else working for us as you know is that it tends to leave out of it but declared because you have
