Activists have called upon residents of Jaramana Camp to take anti-coronavirus vaccine doses in order to help curtail the virus propagation in the camp.
The calls were launched following a recent decision by the Syrian Health Ministry to embark on widespread vaccination campaigns.
Vaccines will be provided in Jaramana Camp starting Tuesday, May 31.
Confirmed coronavirus cases have been increasingly reported in Palestinian refugee camps in Syria, at a time when residents have been launching cries for help over the absence of hygiene kit and medicines. In Jaramana Camp alone, over 40 people have succumbed to the disease.
A few months earlier, AGPS warned of an unabated outbreak of COVID-19 in Palestinian refugee camps in Syria. Limited access to running water, pharmacies and medical facilities mean 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.
