"World Health" monitor polio in Gaza and ask for action

The Director General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanum Jibisus, confirmed on Wednesday that polio was stolen in Gaza, warning that they could soon become ill if preventative measures were not taken quickly. A day after the World Health Organization announced a ‘great possibility’ of polio cases among Gaza residents, Gibrisus on the ‘X’ platform expressed his concern about the human losses of the Israeli war in the Palestinian sector. He said that “polio’s balance in Gaza is another reminder of the miserable circumstances facing the population … The continuation of the conflict impedes the efforts to prevent the threats that can be prevented, such as polio and respond to it.” Jibrisus linked this post to an article he wrote in the French newspaper “Le Monde”, and was published late Tuesday, saying that the polio virus was balanced in sewer samples in Gaza. The Director General of the United Nations Organization in the article wrote that no polio’s condition should be registered so far, “if no action is taken immediately, the disease will become thousands of children who are not reinforced, a matter of time” there. And polio, which is mainly spread by faeces and less by water and infected foods, is a very infected virus that affects the nervous system and causes paralysis and death for children. The viral infection has decreased by 99% in the world since 1988 thanks to mass vaccination campaigns, and efforts continue to eliminate it completely. Jibrisus noted that the organization will send more than a million doses of polio vaccine to Gaza, and that it will be distributed in the coming weeks to prevent children from having infection.
