Mass Polio Vaccination Campaign
The response of emergency poliomas in the Gaza lane continues, with a mass vaccination campaign scheduled from 22th to 26 February 2025. The new oral polio of the type 2 (NOPV2) vaccine will apply over 591,000 children under 10 years of age to protect them from Polio. This campaign follows the recent detection of Poliovirus in wastewater samples in Gaza, signaling constant circulation in the environment, bringing children to risk.
The pockets of individuals with low or no immunity give the virus the opportunity to continue to spread and potentially cause the disease. Currently, the gauze environment, including overcrowding in shelters and severely damaged water, sanitary and hygienic infrastructure, which facilitates the transfer of fecal nuts, creates the ideal conditions for further expansion of poliovirus. The extensive movement of the population consequences of the current ceasefire is likely to worsen the spread of the infection with poliovirus.
Two previous rounds of vaccination in Gaza's belt were successfully carried out in September and October 2024, reaching over 95% of the goal. As it is determined that the poliovirus remains in the environment, additional efforts are required on vaccination to achieve every child and strengthen the immunity of the population. The presence of viruses continues to be a risk for children with low or no immunity, in gauze and in the entire region.
In 2024, health workers faced significant challenges approach to certain areas of the central, northern and southern gauze, which required a special coordination to enter during the conflict. In inaccessible areas such as Jabalia, Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun, where a humanitarian break for vaccination campaign was not provided, approximately 7,000 children missed vaccination during the second round. A recent interruption of fire means that healthcare professionals now have a much better approach.
No additional cases of poliota have been reported because the 10 -month -old child was paralyzed in August 2024, but new environmental patterns from Deir Al Balah and Khan Younis, collected in December 2024 and January 2025, confirm the transmission of Poliovirus. The discovered strain is genetically associated with a poliovirus discovered in a gauze lane in July 2024.
The upcoming vaccination campaign aims to reach all children under the age of 10, including those previously missed, close defects in immunity and end the epidemic. The use of an oral polio vaccine will help to end this outbreak by preventing the spread of the virus. In April, an additional circle of vaccinations is planned to pour polio vaccinations.
The campaign will be led by the Palestinian Ministry of Health and will be implemented with the support of the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the United Nations Assistance and Works Agency for Refugees of Palestine (UNRWA) and other partners.
Polio vaccines are safe and there is no maximum number of times that the child should be vaccinated. Each dose gives additional protection required during active breakdown of polio.
Who, UNICEF and partners welcome the recent truce and urges permanent truce that leads long -term peace.
