Activists Condemn “Substandard” Anti-Coronavirus Efforts by UN Palestine Refugee Agency

Activists have lashed out at UNRWA and the General Authority for Palestinian Arab Refugees (GAPAR) over their unresponsiveness regarding the cries for help launched by the Palestinian refugee community in Syria due to coronavirus outbreak.

The refugees said the sterilization campaigns and precautionary measures carried out by UNRWA and GAPAR do not protect civilians against COVID-19 contaminations.

“How on earth can anti-insect spray prevent coronavirus contaminations?” said a member of the sterilization team in a cynical tone.

Over recent days, UNRWA in cooperation with GAPAR has embarked on a campaign to disinfect displacement camps in Syria in response to COVID-19 outbreak.

Recently, AGPS has warned of a projected outbreak of COVID-19 in Palestinian refugee camps in Syria. Though campaigns to help spread awareness among the camps’ residents have recently seen the day, limited access to running water, pharmacies and medical facilities mean displacement camps are more susceptible to the spread of the highly infectious virus.
