From 1994 to 2005, MSF worked with vulnerable people, including migrants, in Spain.
More recently, responded to the COVID-19 pandemic in the country.
As an organisation with experience in managing humanitarian and health crises, including large-scale epidemics, we supported the Spanish health authorities at all levels between mid-March and late-May, 2020. We provided medical and logistical care, especially to nursing homes.
