<p>The UK is a leading contributor to the health sector in South Sudan, helping to
deliver almost 8 million patient consultations last year. The UK is the lead donor
to the Health Pooled Fund (HPF), through which we are supporting over 1,000 frontline
health centres across South Sudan to improve access to quality health services, including
preventing the spread of disease through routine immunisations for children. Last
year, the HPF provided almost 5.4 million health consultations to children under 5.
Other public health measures include UK funding for the Integrated Community Case
Management programme to better identify and treat the main causes of child mortality
in local communities.</p>
