Kenya. Rift Valley province. Kasambara (20 km from Nakuru). The swiss non-governmental organization (NGO) runs the Rhein-Valley hospital. Female ward. Patients and visitors, family and relatives, all are from the Kikuyu tribe. On front, a sick woman lays in bed and suffers from an incomplete abortion.

The Kikuyu are Kenya's most populous ethnic group. © 2008 Didier Ruef
