A tragic incident occurred in Sheriff Quarter, Voinjoma, Lofa County on June 25, 2024, where one-year-old Sona Trawally passed away after being denied medical treatment at Tellewoyan Hospital due to a health worker's go-slow action.
Despite efforts by her parents to seek medical assistance, including visits to the hospital and a local drugstore, they were unable to obtain the necessary medication immediately. Tragically, Sona's health deteriorated rapidly, and she passed away before receiving the required treatment and before any help could come.
The health workers are resisting the appointment of Dr. Shamavu as CHO by Health Minister Dr. Louise Kpoto, However, after being rejected at the hospital, Sona's parents took her to a local drugstore where they faced another hurdle: the needed drugs were out of stock. The drugstore could offer no immediate alternatives, leaving the family helpless as Sona's condition worsened. With no other options, Trawally and his wife decided to make arrangements to take their daughter to Guinea for treatment the following morning.
