11:02 pm
polio virus and seward samples. now, a week after the 1st case of polio was confirmed in gaza. the w h o plans to administer the vaccine to more than 600000 children under the age of 10. we have right now and the center point stay storage. but if you have received more than $1200000.00 is off and nobody would go back seen approximately $400000.00 on en route to un agencies working with partners to distribute and administer them all while keeping the vials in the appropriate temperature range. israel has agreed to limited pauses in fighting. so health care workers can access the territory each phase lasting several hours. but dr. abbott, who works for gauze, is her most run. health ministry says it's not enough time
11:03 pm
didn't sufficient. they only give us time from 6 am to 2 pm, which is not enough. we need to continue working beyond these unawares. since there is no cure for polio, the key as prevention, the w h o says the vaccine drive has to succeed to prevent a catastrophic outbreak as well. sam row who's using gaza with the agency for palestinian refugees known as on raw. he's got more now and the hurdles don't lie ahead. i certainly going to be extremely challenging. we as, as a, as a system is a human, it's our and system and i think it's probably 5 says a health system have never faced anything quite like this. i should say that i'm right is a big player, and this we estimate that will be administering the around hops of all those vaccines. they're reaching over 300000 people, but it really is a joint effort lead globally by the world health organization. unicef also heavily
11:04 pm
involved unwrapped my organization involved in administering a lot of the vaccines and, and the ministry of health as well. the low whole ministry of health. and without all those different entities working together, it wouldn't have been possible to get as close as we are. so this started now, and we've really just hoping that we will get over the finish line with these vaccines over the next couple of weeks. and what you've already said will be a very complex of very fraud efforts, similar to everything that we'd have to do over the past 1011 months and goes and nothing has been easy. but this one in particular is, is particularly challenging, given the situation, but also given the consequences and the need to get it right. could you spell out some of these challenges in what is, as you described it to an absolutely enormous undertaking? absolutely. i mean, the challenges of stuff from getting the vaccines in getting the cold chain and as
11:05 pm
well, the fridge is the storage equipment to allow the vaccines to be moved around, negotiating supplies of fuel so that those vaccines can be transported as a distribution center says. then on, on the health points the, the units are info's is on the agreement to avoid a situation orders over the period of the, the campaign as well. we'd very much welcome that we, we recognize that it's not been easy and we called on apologies to the conflicts with a to those agreements and beyond just the mechanics of, of reaching the people wherever they, we estimate 640000 children needs to receive the vaccine, that's everybody under the age of 10 and go so we don't know precisely how many, how many children are given the situation that tens of thousands killed overall in
11:06 pm
the many, tens of thousands more underneath the rubles. and the basic software that we would normally take for granted are extremely difficult, and then it's reaching the people normally. when we run a campaign like this, the children, the parents are bringing that children to all health clinics. this is what would normally happen. and this is why before the war. busy and run had a 99 percent coverage effects and ations uh through uh, health clinics. a lot of those health clinics are no longer operational in the people where they would normally be. so we have some fixed points. we set up some health points and shelters. when many hundreds of thousands of sheltering i'm, we'll also have mobile mobile teams who will, who will go 10 to 10. so administer vaccines and they'll be separate. teams are looking at people and trying to capture people on the streets. and it's more complicated by the fact that we're not able to do this uniformly in the same time across the hold of jobs. so they'll be 4 days in the middle of the gaza strip. we will then move south, and then after that we,
11:07 pm
we will move north. and of course we go through the whole thing again in full weeks because every child needs 2 doses of the vaccine was sound rose from the un agency for palestinian refugee speaking to us from the central gaza. thank you so much for your time. i is at least 20 palestinians have been killed in the occupied westbank as these wild presses on with its military operation which began on wednesday. witnessed the site is riley is concentrating its forces around the city option named how mos, which carried out the october 7 terror attacks is prize. what he calls resistance against these riley defense forces. many engine name have been left with just one option, fleeing the homes. gunfire wings out in the city of jeanine. as is really armoured vehicles patrol the streets. many here are turning their back some of the city they once called home. the fighting between is really forces and i'm us and his limit john,
