Her first child was coming into the world as hospitals prepared to limit services to emergency care.

“There is a lot of shouting,” Diba says.

“I saw things inside the hospital that shocked me.”

Her labour lasted 24 hours.

Her husband and other relatives were absent. She shared a room with four other women. Cracks ran across the ceiling. The fan did not work. Some rooms had air conditioning; others did not. Electricity was intermittent.

Women cried. Some were frightened. Sometimes, she says, their cries were met with: “Be quiet.”
