More than 161,000 children under the age of 10 received polio vaccination in the central region of the Gaza Strip during the first two days of the vaccination campaign involving UN agencies, exceeding the initial target of 156,000 children, the World Health Organization (WHO) said. This number includes about 25 percent of the total number of children that the campaign aims to reach, as the vaccination campaign is carried out for three consecutive days in the central, southern, and northern Gaza Strip with the possibility of adding other days if necessary, the WHO said in a statement. The WHO representative in the occupied Palestinian territory, Richard Peeperkorn, said he believed that the campaign will need an additional day to vaccinate all targeted children in central Gaza. The WHO stated that immunization teams will move to southern Gaza on Thursday to conduct the campaign for three days, before starting it in the northern Gaza Strip, and four weeks later, the process will be repeated in the second rou nd of the campaign.
