******* Nations to Begin Polio Vaccine Campaign in GazaThe World Health Organization’s top representative in Gaza said ******* agreed to temporarily pause its military operations in designated areas during the hours vaccines would be administered to children.

A two-round polio vaccination campaign is — will actually start on the First of September. It’s critical that we reach 90 percent vaccination. You need 90 percent plus to stop the outbreak, the transmission within Gaza and prevent international spread. We have a preliminary commitment for area-specific humanitarian pauses during the campaign. So it will be three days in a central zone, where needed we add a day, three days in the south where needed, we add a day, and three days in the North. Within four weeks, you do the second round. When we start this process, we have to finish this process. So the assumption is for WHO, UNICEF partners, that we of course, will do that. We will definitely do the second round as well.
