Impetigo

This morning, i got a call from one Dr.Wong, informing that he has seen a few patients having impetigo, involving a family. This is something uncommon.

This is the view of the longhouse. Even though it was only about 30 kilometers away, the journey takes about an hour. The road condition was not so good and most of it was dirt road.
