the w h o had been monitoring a surge in cases in the congo. the new variant has spread to the road to kenya, lawanda and uganda. impaction can be passed on through close contact, causes flu like symptoms, and lesions on the bottom. the head of the w h o says the lot is necessary to save lives, up. to date, the emergency community met and advised me that it's view the situation constituents of public health, emergency of international consent i have accepted. that advice is clear that the coordinated international response is essential to stop this outbreaks and save lives apart because the emergency of international concern is the highest level of all are under international health, low will and remain is a professor of any ology at the u. c. l, a. fielding school of public health. she told us how this alleged by the w h o could help contain the outbreak. this is actually a very important moment and really demonstrates that we've learned a lot from previous outbreaks or previous uh, situations you know, in the past, maybe reaction a little mor

she told us how they slowed by the w h. o could help contain the outbreak. this is actually a very important moment and really demonstrates that we've learned a lot from previous outbreaks or previous uh, situations. you know, in the past maybe reacting a little more slowly when we see something happening in remote rural areas in africa. but i think what we've learned here is that an infection anywhere is potentially an infection everywhere. and what's happening in rural areas of africa can very easily come to our doorsteps, anywhere in the world. and so being able to stop this at its source as soon as possible is critically important. and this public health emergency will do many things. it will unlock funding that is not has not been available to really support surveillance, a better testing opportunities more more efforts towards public health. but it's also going to help coordinate getting vaccines and barracuda, to these areas that have not had these tools to be able to combat and fox the previously. and just briefly you mentioned, this is an important

h. o released the statement by marcus. today, the emergency committee met and advised me that its view, the situation goodness that you, it's a public code emergency of international consent. the w. h o says that congo now has over 18 styles in cases and over 600 have died as a result of impulse this year. at least 12 countries across africa have registered a spike in cases of the virus to sweden was the 1st country outside of africa to record a case of the played one b variant or the other 2 from a person who had traveled to, to and effected area of africa, children have been disproportionately affected by this site break, accounting for approximately 70 percent of cases in congo. for you said children in the i did because they are always playing together. so did tend to did i did look at instead of both of these tasks associated these thought to be look at about that . so they play to get the order with the list together. and you can also see like unit in the house voice the event plus the night on this, on defend beds,

the matching decent noise, w h o regional director for africa, has been at the forefront of response efforts. today she discusses the challenges of playful health governance vaccine in equity and the need for new public health in africa. dr. massachuset, morrissey, world health organization, regional director for africa, talks throughout the visa m o n w h o director for africa. thank you for talking to al jazeera. let's lay out where we're at. first of all, what's your understanding of the current status of the inputs virus in africa as we speak? yes, so 1st, thanks very much for the, for the invitation. i think we can summarize like that uh, several outbreaks going on. added to a endemic impulse in some countries, particularly in some child and some west african countries. overall, since the beginning of this year, there's been just over 15000 cases, suspect of cases reported almost 4000 confirmed number 2 confirmed again underline the the challenges with level 2 supplies. but i would say that the outbreak that is of most concern, that has triggered the decisions to declare a publi

so chris, and this is something for the w h o has been calling for. it's been saying that humanitarian pauses are vital for the poll. your vaccination campaign in the gaza strip. tell us how this came about now or well, it came about after intense pressure from you why the fishes and the united states was secretary of state anthony blinking. also reportedly appealing to israel to allow this campaign to happen. also, warnings that the vaccine could spread to israel, as well as the expectation that it will spread rapidly through god's given the lack of sanitation and disruptions and medical care and vaccinations that have happened there in the presence of polio. now that was spotted in a young boy in the last week who is now paralyzed as result. so what is happening is that the vaccines will be ruled out as you just heard, starting on september 1st over a 3 day period. uh they'll start in central gaza and then they're going to move to northern, got to a southern, gaza for 3 days and then to northern guys up for 3 days. and they say that they've been giv

the w h o contingency fund for emergencies. it may need to release more in the coming days. the health agency, however, anticipates an immediate funding requirement of an initial, an, of an initial $15000000.00. just for surveillance, preparedness and response activities as working with countries and vaccine manufacturers on potential vaccine donations. that spring poll honda is a professor in medicine and an expert in infectious diseases from the university of east andrea in the u. k. professor honda, how quickly took this virus spread further around the world to well, i think the 1st thing is this is a virus is predominantly being spreading through sexual transmission rates. and we know that the infections and specs actually can actually spread literally very, very quickly. as people move around the world, so somebody can get an infection, say, now if it gets a day and then within a week or 2, the exec toyotas anywhere else in the world. so they can certainly spread very rapidly globally. i mean, how can the health authoritie

h. o has announced that polio vaccinations will begin this sunday in gaza. that's as israel has agreed to what it calls limited, she monetary and force is ready. 5 minutes that has that denied plans for an overall humanitarian truce. the polls is, will only take place in certain areas across bank by the threat of a polio virus epidemic, which is preventable. by the way, it's been moving over gaza distinction. monetary and situation has spiraled to new logs. earlier this month, a 10 month old baby was paralyzed with polio, the 1st case of a child being infected in 25 years and gaza. in total, it's estimated over $600000.00 palestinian children that are in need of the polio vaccine. let's learn more right now and forced live to unicef communications officer sally m o y. so joining us here on, on the international mission allies. thanks for coming on the program. we appreciate your time. this is and i'm vicious program. the number is a huge. i just said 600000 kids. it is and a business plan

h o is representative, and the occupied west bank and gaza. he says more than a 1000000 vaccine doses are ready in the strip. the $82.00 wrong polio vaccinations to bang this will actually start in the 1st of september in a gas with your drones to convey the pa, steven ministry of health and calibration of its virtual units. and why, and far from this bill provides uh bill will provide 2 drops to no whole world polio vaccine tried to focus on tv to, to more than 614000 children. on the 10 years of age, chris is salumi is joining us now from the united nation. so chris and talk us through this announcements because the w h o has been staying for awhile now, but humanitarian pauses are vital for that campaign to begin. so how did this come about or yeah, and there is a lot of international concern and a warning that the virus could spread to israel if it's not rained in very soon. and we know that not only have un officials and humanitarians been calling for these humanitarian pauses, but also the european union put out a statement calling on is

h. o, so we are working with, with a tough time on that. all right, so getting this ducks of vaccine built up, that's a critical thing. that's an important issue immediately to address, but then also in on somebody you're already experiencing. i'm sure the distribution is a major concern, especially in remote parts of africa in the rural areas. insightful. yes, absolutely. i mean, i've, i've to say, but countries have extensive experience in carrying out vaccination campaigns, even tool remote areas. but i'd always entails investing in the capacity to do so, mobilizing additional health care work, cuz community to work because those people that are going to be carrying out the work. so this is a planning that we have some 40, not countries to carry out. now, we need to define 25. what is needed in order to be able to not only get the vaccines into the countries, but together vaccines from their paws into the arms of people where sometimes a primary health care system is very under stuffed. the logistics need investing in to get the vaccines

as cases of the deadly virus serves the w h, o declares, and global health emergency. the outbreak is being fueled by a new more easily transmissible barrier. also coming up talk saying that achieving a ceasefire and gaza are set to get underway in the hall. thomas is refusing to take part in saying it's losing faith in us media. the hello, i'm terry martin. thanks for joining us. world health organization has declared a global public health emergency following an outbreak of a new strain of the m pox virus in africa. the virus formerly known as monkey pox can be passed on through close contact and causes flu like symptoms and lesions on the body and can be deadly. it's now been detected in at least 13 african countries, but one country has been hit particularly hard. the democratic republic of congo, impulse is searching across africa. and this is ground 0, thousands of cases hoping that posted in the democratic republic of congo. as a new outbreak grips the country, it's already claimed at least $450.00 lives. most of them children, and it's showing no sign of slowin

so far this year, about the w h o n, the international federation of the red cross recommending that countries do not close the borders. and from the side, we do stand with what is recommended under international health regulations, which is that there's no need to close borders when we are in disease outbreaks, diseases don't recognize borders. people will continue to cross the border, whether it is a legal crossing or a not an illegal crossing. it doesn't stop a disease from spreading topic. yes of age speaks for the health organization who joins as a from geneva to we had the closing board as does apparently not stop a disease from spreading. but can you explain why it wouldn't limit the rate of infection, especially if papa check stub being paid as well. uh, as we have heard from the quoted from uh, i have far see uh uh, and we know from different experience and we have a serious, i'm calling 19 going through the closing the borders is not going to stop the stop the virus. and this is a different virus from, let's say, code 19, because this virus is being transmitted through very

how would you assess the collaboration between the w h o and national governments and how you ensuring that the, the money is given to national governments, gets to the people in terms of health care and isn't siphoned off in corruption? yes, that's a, that's a very good question though. of course there's a lot of better validation though in the countries. i would say that the partnership and collaboration between w to and there's not government is extremely good. it is extremely strong. as um, there is no direct, i've been able to have access to government, lead us of the highest level. we work very closely, of course with the ministers of health and the ministers of health. we have 47 countries that i oversee and definitely can. and that's what can be done and our country teams led by w to representatives with very, very closely with governments. and we have what's to advise them, working with other partners, help them develop the next most time to just help them also develop the mechanisms for ensuring that they monetize and improve accountability for the financing that that they ar

how much of a difference do you think it'll make that the w h o is now declared the impacts outbreak to be a global public health emergency probably shouldn't make a great difference. normally these faces, we call them p h e i sees that tends to be announced when you want to release more funding and more resources that to those those particular epidemics or pandemic situations. and this should hopefully allow this release of funding and resources and those from countries of course, they are already quite stream as resource limited in many other ways. should people outside of the effective regions be worried about their own health? could this virus end up spreading much further and if so, what precautions should people be taking? so yes, of course, as we saw it 2 years ago, they tried to straighten spread globally along the so called amazon network. they, the midwest exit men sexual network. but this is much more, a indiscriminate seems to be spreading across the heterosexual population and other general populations. it may be less transmissible. i'm excited to be strained, turned out

yeah, but the w h o n, the international federation of the red cross recommending the countries do not close the borders. and from the i a 1st the side we do stand with what is recommended under international health regulations, which is that there's no need to close borders when we are in disease outbreaks, diseases don't recognize borders. people will continue to cross the border, whether it is legal crossing or not, and then legal crossing. it doesn't stop a disease from spreading. correspond to jack park jones stuff from brussel stuck at . what do we know so far about these virus? a well, we know that and it is the new i break is spreading rapidly is mainly focused in africa, specifically around the democratic republic of congo. there's $96.00 of the current cases of that, but also across 12 of the african countries. i'm polls is it's been around for a while. we've known about it for the best part of half a century. but specifically, there's been a recent i break back in 2022 that was focused in western europe also in america, 70 countries around the world have it then. um, but it

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 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

h. o says israel has agreed to limited pauses in financing and certain positive garza to allow a polio vaccination campaign. the silver albany watching. notice they were like, well, headquarters here in the hall also coming up as well. pushes on with as offensive in the west side despite widespread global condemnation. a push to stabilize relations. the us national security adviser means present changing things as he runs stuff his visit to china. also trying to stop the flow of illegal migrants from fence cricket, spain's prime minister is in san diego. the welcome to the fact of the world health organization says israel has agreed to limited pauses and fighting in gaza to allow a polio vaccination campaign to begin the wood agencies as the polls. this will take place during 9 am a windows over 3 days in different areas of the strip causes helpful if i were to say they've recorded the 1st case of the debilitating disease industry for 25 years . now, 8 groups of blame, the re emergence of

h o regional office for africa. and he says, the closing of trade and travel to effective countries isn't necessary. as we sorted things, students do, and we have seen with other diseases. we know that disease is not require passports to be able to move. so they move quite freely on the we caught it out a risk assessment idea in july, which has been updated. generally the risk was very high and we didn't, did. yeah. see, but also is, is moderate in the neighboring countries. and the global and risk is, is, has been assessed as being low. our way of up just one case is sufficient to be able to take a transmission on the uh, in a, in a given area. and that's why it's important that we able to support the countries that are affected to be put in place effective. somebody loves these things that we probably identify any new. this is effective new for the of the contacts on be able to contain the transmission. i must husband to add to that, you know, closing off trade on trouble is not something that needs to be put easi

h. o is joining us live from london. thank you very much indeed for being with us in the event that israel doesn't allow for a pause in the fighting to a low. this will allow it to go ahead, which is on a huge scale. what are you going to do? so this is going to be a very uh, if we do not have a ceasefire. and if the, if sufficient freedom of movement has what it says to be able to blend the logistics and operations and activities, find all the children and then bashing exams that is not allowed. the list of this outbreaks reading not going to be within guys ever outside of guys. uh uh, 2 other boxes of, of occupied by the stadium tentatively is raised and founding countries of this new jo assess of that list to be very high and low low cases. of identity, what do you have been detected so far? that just means continues in these, especially among the youngest children. i'm an infant who have not been assistance in getting their vaccination because of the deception of the, the service. did anybody and got you were mention

well, the rick people, colin is the w h o is representative in occupied west bank and gaza. he says more than a 1000000 vaccine dos. he's already in the st. a 2 rows of explanation to bang this will actually start in the 1st of september and it got it during drones to convey the policy, the ministry of health and calibration of its virtual units. uh and why and bar, cuz bill provides uh, bill bill was like 2 drops off to normal world polio vaccine time to shop and all the features, to more than $614000.00 children. on the 10 years of age. christmas lately has mona from united nations. this is a welcome announcement for the security council in the international community that had been voicing increasing alarm over the possibility of the spread of polio amid the children of gaza. and the announcement came just before a security council meeting that was called by the united kingdom in switzerland. again, very concerned about the deteriorating humanitarian situation in gaza. the w h o briefing council members said that the agreement not perfect, not ideal, but something that the

but both the w h o and the international federation of the red cross are recommending that countries do not close their borders. and from the i 1st decided we do stand with what is recommended under international health regulations, which is that there's no need to close borders when we are in disease outbreaks, diseases don't recognize borders. people will continue to cross the border whether it is legal, crossing or not, and legal crossing. it doesn't stop a disease from spreading from war on this. i'd like to bring in doctor william shatner, professor of medicine in the division of infectious diseases at vanderbilt university . welcome, it's nice to see you. to start off for those watching from home. how worried should people be about this outbreak? or i think at the moment there's no need to worry. this is something we in public health and infectious diseases, are keeping a careful eye on. we're trying to help the people in the democratic republic of congo do with this by getting them some vaccine, providing them resources so they can track these infections more carefully. i thin

the w h o says any detection of polio is a public health image and see that could spread well beyond causes boat. mike level, which is 0. the antonia protestors have fought with police in the capital during demonstrations calling on president william bhutto to resign. the police fire tear gas and arrested several demonstrators. all 3 protests have continued in spite of multiple concessions made by router over the past months, and purchasers are also demanding justice for more than 60 people killed during the violence police crack down. malcolm lab reports from nairobi to demonstrate, says, i've been trying, i was to have a couple of questions about the place. so one, any to take place to the processes. i agree, following earlier in the day, present really in research swearing in a new cabinet, which doesn't include pointing several of the ministers in the cabinet that he just weeks ago on the demonstration. not mean, you know, i'm the president russo isn't interested in any news on the new on this malcom web. right. let's take a closer look now. well, what's caused these protests and

this is the w h o is highest alas level. the virus has fred from the democratic republic of congo to neighbor and kenya blondie, uganda and the wanda mancha lab for reports. for the 2nd time in as many years, the world health organization has declared impacts as a public health emergency impacts spreads through close contact and has flu like symptoms accompanied by lesions on the body. earlier this week, africa's top public health already declared the viral infection and emergency all states rapid scripts and more than a dozen countries on the continent. the w i chose announcement followed swift. it's clear that the coordinated international response is essential to stop this outbreaks and save lives. the center of the outbreak is the democratic republic of congo with 96 percent of cases have been recorded. 60 percent of those of people under the age of 18, but a new strain has also sprayed to full neighboring countries compared to last year. infections have risen, a 160 percent and dates so up nearly 20 percent. so far they

what is the w h o is pledged nearly $1500000.00 from its contingency fund for emergencies. but the search is on for an estimated $15000000.00 needed to their own channel coordinated regional response. mike level of desert told us to try and 16 months some conflicts ensued under underway in geneva, but by the one the site is present. delegation from the power military rapids support forces has arrived for representative from the sudanese army while they haven't turned up. yeah. especially in boy temper yellow. it says the army has a responsibility to join the torque seas cool them face sides respect international law and to bring the conflict to an end table. morgan is more now from call to to the us special envoy. he said that he is still hoping that the city needs army will send a delegation, but in a statement yesterday, the head of the army general had been put that behind said that they will be ne flyers hawks. unless certain conditions, our method he specifically referred to, they did the agreement that was signed between the army and the parent minutes through rapid s

to allow a pony a vaccination campaign to begin. 1.2000000 doses have been delivered to the strip w h o ames device that 864-0000 children younger than 10 against the highly infectious disease. inoculations will take place over 9 days in 3 areas. bouncing in central gauze on sunday. the agreement allows pulls and fighting for 9 hour windows each day. a bruce blame the re emergence of polio on these, right? the armies destruction of water and sanitation systems, wells, health organizations, folks, when margaret harris says, forces in fighting might not give enough time to vaccinate the children. we welcome the commitment and we have to be confident that the committee will hold, that we will have the pause in, in function that we need. because we need the security for the effects they just, but also for the families, for the children to be able to come to the sites and to be backs that agent. so it's not perfect, we want it a full safe spot, but it's the best workable solution we have at the moment. now we've also said it may not be possible to reach older children for 3 days. we may need

the w h o says guys that had a 99 percent vaccination rate before the war and that has now dropped to 86 percent leaving pockets of children at risk. earlier we spoke to how many jaffar, who is the director of polio eradication for the eastern mediterranean region at the w h o. p was that there's a real risk of the virus spreading beyond god. it is, we do not have a ceasefire. and if the, if sufficient freedom of movement of heads, workers to be able to plan the logistics and operations an activity, find all the children and then bashing exams that are not allowed. the list of this outbreaks reading not only within guys ever outside of guys. uh uh, 2 other 5, so uh for occupied by the stadium tentatively, is reyes and surrounding countries of this new jo assistance that this can be very high and dry. in most cases of identity. what do you have been detected so far? that list will continue to increase, especially among the youngest children among infant who have not been assistance in getting that vaccination because of the disruption of the the a service. does anybody in got the glitc

we do have m fox, fox savings just explains why the w h. o is so concerned about this latest outbreak . you will be concerned about the latest on the bank, because it's, it's affecting us. you just saw the deal to see the mortality rate is higher, 5 to 10 percent, and mostly in children. but we're also now seeing that the virus is more transmissible and particularly through heterosexual spreads as well. so we're seeing more cases and the more easy transmission in conditions that are really difficult for people to maintain the distance. so that's why we're concerned about the shortage of vaccines is a huge concern for the african region. they're all vaccines, the vaccines that work for. so many people in europe, they'll remember the 10 to 22 outbreaks that affected nearly 800000 people. and over a 100 countries, it was both onto controlled by rapid available that you, vaccines. now we have to ask, why do we not help those vaccines in the african region? because the all star pulse in european countries in the united states, we need to free up t

the of the w h o says israel has agreed to some areas specific pauses in fighting in gaza to enable a polio vaccination campaign the from the headquarters and del fine getting obligates also coming off. israel pushes on with it's offensive in the occupied westbank, despite widespread global condemnation trying to stop the flow of illegal migrants from.

in 2022, the w h o declared a global emergency initial symptoms are similar to flu, including x and fever, and swollen glands, followed by a painful rush that forms blisters and fox and spreads to physical contact with infected people, as well as contaminated surfaces and objects to ocean, patrick, some of them is team lead for acute event management at the w h. o regional office for africa is those countries which admit they have cases of a virus that should not be stigmatized. as we sorted things students do, and we have seen with other diseases, we know that disease is not require passports to be able to move. so they move quite freely on the we cut it out a risk assessment idea in july which has been updated. generally the risk was very high and we deemed it yeah, see, but also is, is moderate in the neighboring countries. and the global and risk is, is, has been assessed as being low. our way of up just one case is sufficient to be able to take advantage of these on the uh, in a, in a given area. and that's why it's important that we able to support the countries that are affected to
