A father and his his little boy are waiting patiently to be seen at a Mother and Baby clinic in one of the local villages. The boy had a cough and a fever, which might seem like a small thing for a child in the West, but if untreated, and combined with poor hygiene and nutrition, could lead to all sorts of complications like chest infections etc.
