UN to launch polio vaccine campaign in Gaza

Two rounds of polio vaccination campaigns will actually begin on September 1st. It is vital that vaccination coverage reaches 90%. You need more than 90% to stop the outbreak, stop the spread within Gaza and prevent international spread. We initially committed to humanitarian pauses targeting specific areas during the campaign. So the central region will be three days and we add one day if needed, the southern region will be three days and we will add one day and the northern region will be three days. In four weeks, you will have your second round. When we start the process, we must finish the process. So the assumption from the WHO, UNICEF partners is, of course we will do that. We will definitely do a second round as well.
