Nurses In Ghana Deliver Babies By Phone Light
The power outage in Ghana has assumed a dangerous dimension as nurses in most hospitals now rely on mobile phone light to deliver babies.
Due to the protracted epileptic supply of electricity in the country, BBC reports that most hospitals are burdened by the cost of fueling their generators. As a result, midwives are compelled to rely on mobile light to carry out baby deliveries.

That site was supposedly the first step in a new screening process that would lead people from figuring out if their symptoms warranted more testing to the location of new “drive through” testing stations. But Trump was wrong. This screening site isn’t being developed by Google . Instead, it’s being built by Verily , Alphabet’s life science division — and it’s not ready to launch yet either. While both share the same parent company in Alphabet, these are two very different companies.
