Dr. Jeredine George, a specialist Obstetrician Gynaecologist at the Princess Christian Maternity Hospital (PCMH) commonly called Cottage has confirmed the death of a newborn baby due to a power outage at the hospital.
According to Dr. George, the baby was in distress while in its mother’s womb and the mother needed oxygen to sustain her baby but there was no power, which led to the death of the baby immediately after surgery was conducted on the mother.
According to Dr. George, there was no power at the hospital from 9:15 pm on Monday till 8:00 am on Tuesday. She said the hospital has solar power but can only last for a maximum of 5 hours at full capacity and it was in operation till 9:15 pm on Monday, adding the hospital generator can only serve the operating theatre.
She stated that nurses on night duty have to admit, care for, and give medications to patients in the dark or use their phone torches or those of the patient’s relatives.
She called on the authorities concerned to come to the aid of the hospital as there are many issues at the hospital.

Guys we have a lot to do as CHO/Dr. It is hard time we have plenty Dr and CHO going to fight for human exitance in parliament guys. Politics is not only for lawyer etc . In fact politics of for Science people read about Rudolf Virchow’s from Germany and others. This is not we have pledged our lives for. Having sleepless light to red on how to save lives and politicians are taking lives because of bad Governance and poor social Determinants of health. They are going against the act of our late mentor: Dr Paul Farmer and others who want better lives of people in the world. I know we can’t do all but we can do what we can ok guys. God will punish the all for putting us this back 21st century. No light , women carried in hammock etc. Dr Sengeh whom people think is the best person is the worst. We therefore never give people to any educated fools again. Look at what the first lader said in UN the white are controlling us. So that means they are not competent to rule the Nation. Guys open your eyes sierra Leoneans. I am a Born SLPP but I can watch my people dying I don’t say the truth.

As someone else already put it, this is happening in the 21st century. We are backwards, uncivilized. An entire country cannot ensure the basics. Illegitimate Bio, you are running a very underdeveloped country, but you want to keep flying private jets to first world country, thinking you are impressing people. You are not, when you sit in front of people, all they notice is your ridiculous fat face, your ridiculously fat belly and your funny lips that make like cow back side everytime you speak. You are hopeless, you can’t fool us with your words. You are taking us backwards
All those who have hands during this must face some actions. Even at that a government hospital should have a backup generator that runs a whole day and can serve the whole hospital. The government is not only to be blamed but also those who are working in the hospitals. They too one way or another contribute towards that.
