🔵 Polio vaccination campaign in Gaza amid ongoing conflict

health

In Gaza, a polio vaccination campaign is underway, spurred by the first confirmed case in 25 years. The urgent campaign aims to vaccinate 640,000 children, in response to deteriorating health conditions caused by the ongoing conflict, which has severely impacted healthcare services. Israeli strikes continue to claim civilian lives, further complicating the humanitarian situation; reports state over 40,000 Palestinians have died since the conflict erupted in October 2023, exacerbating the emotional and physical toll on children and families, many of whom are under severe stress from violence and displacement [8][6][0]. Doctors warn that insufficient infrastructure coupled with active combat poses significant risks to public health, intensifying fears of larger outbreaks if vaccination efforts falter [9].
