Medical teams in northwest Syria have completed the vaccination campaign against “cholera” that had been started by the “Syrian Vaccine Team” about ten days ago.
According to the “Syrian Vaccine Team”, more than 1.6 million people have been vaccinated in the Idlib and Aleppo regions.
Last week, the “Syrian Vaccine” team confirmed that more than 573,000 people have been vaccinated for cholera in opposition-controlled areas in northwestern Syria since the start of the first vaccination campaign.
According to the team, 484,000 people were vaccinated in Idlib, including more than 209,000 in Atma, 156,000 in Sarma, around 99,000 in Maarat Misrin and more than 21,000 in Harem, while around 88,000 people in Azaz, rural Aleppo, were vaccinated.
The campaign aims to protect Syrians over the age of one within the scope of the campaign launched by the World Health Organization in cooperation with the health authorities in the region, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
