What are the challenges involved in polio vaccination campaign in Gaza?
Description
August 31, 2024
In Gaza, an urgent effort is underway to stop the spread of a life-threatening disease. The detection of "Polio" in the densely populated strip has raised concerns, especially because the disease, which was almost eradicated in the 20th century, primarily affects children. To contain its spread, the United Nations has initiated a vaccination campaign, targeting 640,000 children in Gaza. Global's Touria Izri provides insight into the challenges and efforts involved in this critical campaign.
