A mother places her baby son on to scales to be weighed by a medical worker in the health centre at the Koubigou camp for internally displaced persons. The child is suspected to be malnourished as the mother has not been able breastfeed as she is not producing milk. She tried to feed him with goat's milk with no success. The baby is going to be sent as an emergency case to the Goz Beida Nutritional Centre seven km away.
