The official medical personnel in East Africa were mostly from the East, with only Constantine bringing a private German medical team. Among other immigrants, there were some "doctors" from Europe, but most were unorthodox, practicing with Medieval Western medicine methods, often resorting to crude surgeries without sterilization. Who could endure such treatments?
Doctors remained the most scarce profession in East Africa. Most patients relied on fate, and many had their traditional remedies, unsure of their efficacy but ready to try nonetheless. Thankfully, people of this era were accustomed to such situations.
East Africa officially built a total of 108 clinics but not a single hospital, with 285 registered doctors. There was one Snake Venom Research Institute, considered the pinnacle of East African medical resources.
