As our teams continue the #polio vaccination campaign in #Gaza middle areas, vaccines are arriving in our health centres in the south. UNRWA colleagues are hosting vaccine awareness sessions for the community, before the vaccination starts in southern #Gaza areas tomorrow.

After 3 days of #polio vaccination campaign in #Gaza middle areas, UNRWA, the World Health Organization, UNICEF, and partners reached around 187,000 children. Efforts continue to provide as many children as possible with the vaccine. Temporary area pauses must be respected. Above all, we need a #CeasefireNow.

“It's very promising that we have already heard interest from parents [...] from the southern area who are asking our staff there: ‘When is the vaccination going to be available for us?’" UNRWA Louise Wateridge on the ongoing #polio vaccination campaign in #Gaza https://lnkd.in/d4nYz6nT

Due to military operations and evacuation orders, people in #Gaza have been squeezed into increasingly smaller spaces. With families crammed into overcrowded shelters or tents on any available land they can find, living conditions are inhumane and enable the spread of diseases.

We need at least 90% vaccination coverage to stop the outbreak and prevent the spread of #polio in the #GazaStrip. Today, UNRWA teams will be in the middle areas again to vaccinate as many children as possible. Our efforts will continue across all of #Gaza in the coming days.
