KUNMING -- A Chinese health team consisting of 50 members departed for Myanmar on Saturday to assist with post-disaster epidemic prevention following a 7.9-magnitude earthquake that struck the country in March.
The team, assembled at Myanmar's request as part of China's expanded humanitarian aid announced on April 10, includes 12 members from Beijing and 38 medical experts from Kunming, capital city of Southwest China's Yunnan province.
Equipped with emergency medical supplies and equipment, the team will focus on mitigating disease risks in quake-affected regions.
