عندما ننعم بالسلام، يمكننا حماية الصحة العامة واستعادة الأمل والعافية. وفي اليوم الثاني من حملة التطعيم ضد شلل الأطفال في #غزة، تلقى التطعيم أكثر من 74000 طفل، ليصل العدد الإجمالي خلال يومين إلى 161000 طفل، وهو ما يتجاوز العدد المستهدف وهو 156500 طفل، وذلك على الرغم من التحديات.

نجحت المرحلة الأولى من حملة التطعيم ضد شلل الأطفال، حيث تلقى التطعيم أكثر من 187000 طفل في وسط #غزة، وهو ما يزيد عن هدفنا الأولي المتمثل في تطعيم 156500 طفل. وسوف يستمر العمل في أربعة مواقع ثابتة للتطعيم، لضمان عدم إغفال أي طفل. وغدًا، تبدأ المرحلة الثانية في جنوب غزة. ولا غنى
