A bundle is rushed into the corridor of this hospital in the Central African Republic (CAR) with a gaggle of people in its wake. Under the swaddle of cloth is a newborn baby girl, eyes closed, her chest heaving with tortured, syncopated breaths. Nurses quickly connect the baby up to a confusion of monitors, tubes and drips.
