Afrin, which was hardest-hit by the February 6 earthquakes, did not figure in the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over 50.000 suspected cases have been recorded in Aleppo and Idlib since the outbreak declared in September 2022. Two weeks after the earthquake, 1.784 new cases were recorded in Syria, according to the statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The WHO says 2.1 million Syrians are at risk of contracting waterborne diseases like cholera in the country&#8217;s northwest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr Richard Brennan, Emergency Director for the WHO&#8217;s East Mediterranean office said the &#8220;WHO and partners have to act now to avoid further illness and death. As the cholera vaccines are orally administered, it is crucial to ensure that targeted populations are reached before the beginning of Holy month of Ramadan, as most adults will be fasting during this period.&#8221; This year, Ramadan begins on March 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reporting by Sasha Hoffman<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The @WHO and @UNICEF launch a cholera vaccination campaign for #earthquake-hit areas of #Syria, but Afrin does not figure in the list<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":94424,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-94423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","category-syria"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
