Chapter 4

There was a staff debate including the Zanmi Lasante’s community
health center. It was at this debate when workers agreed that the
poorest patients suffer the most, especially because of malnutrition.
The differnce between faith and medicine is presented through out the chapter. Farmer wants doctors and nurses to put themselves with the patient they are treating, for example TB patients. So, each patient received “directly observed therapy” which consisted of a community health worker. In return, the worker would receive equal to five American dollars and benefits from the Zanmi Lasante. This plan seemed to be working well.
