    In the last ten years in Congo, hundreds of thousands of women have been raped, most of them gang raped. Panzi Hospital is full of them.

    "All these women have been raped?" Cooper asked Dr. Mukwege, standing near a very large group of women waiting.

    All the women, the doctor says, have been patients of his.

    Within a week, Dr. Mukwege says this room will be filled with new faces, new victims.

    "You know, they're in deep pain. But it's not just physical pain. It's psychological pain that you can see. Here at the hospital, we've seen women who've stopped living," Dr. Mukwege explains.

    And not all the people the hospital treats are adults. "There are children. I think the youngest was three years old," Mukwege says. "And the oldest was 75."

    • so you think the development of a country and it policing does not effect rape occurrences?
