"In the spring of 1964, the radio crackled that a missionary doctor at a faraway station was stricken with malaria. Dr. Paul Carlson made an all-night drive through torrential rain over muddy jungle roads to treat this colleague and consult with others across the network.
Today, the global network is digital and wireless, relying on solar power since electricity and cell phone coverage are still rare in the Equateur Province."
