| Doctors without Borders or Médecins Sans Frontières deliver aids to countries that have one of the four situations: wars and conflicts, natural or man-made disasters, refugees and displaced people, and long-term assistance. They are in numerous countries to help the people get medical care and vaccines. Their goal was to give medical care to people regardless of race, religion, creed or political affiliation, and that the needs of these people supersede respect for national borders. Doctors without Borders were started by a group of French doctors that believed everybody deserved this. Doctors without Borders is a non-profit organization that leads the way in the world with emergency medical care.
