UNRWA in Syria has provided more anti-coronavirus vaccine doses in AlHusainiya Camp for Palestinian refugees, in Rif Dimashq.
The residents will start receiving vaccines as of Sunday, February 27, at the local clinic.
Over recent months, AGPS has warned of an unabated outbreak of COVID-19 in Palestinian refugee camps in Syria, where limited access to running water, pharmacies and medical facilities means displacement camps are more susceptible to the spread of the highly infectious virus.
Displacement camps set up in northern Syria are especially vulnerable as most hospitals and medical facilities have been bombed, rendering them out of order.
