UN warns of viruses spreading in Gaza
The Hill ^ | 01/19/2024 | FILIP TIMOTIJA

The United Nations warned that viruses are spreading in the Gaza Strip amid poor sanitary conditions and lack of resources. Gazans have limited access to health care and illness is spreading in overcrowded shelters amid Israel’s continued bombardment.

More than 8,000 cases of viral Hepatitis A are linked to overcrowding in shelters, according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health. Laboratories in hospitals are unable to perform tests due to lack of materials.

Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that 24 cases of Hepatitis A were confirmed, but no deaths so far. He added that there are several thousand people with jaundice, “presumably also due to Hepatitis A.”

Hepatitis A is rarely deadly. It can be transmitted through contact with an infectious person or through contaminated water and food, according to WHO. Tedros said in his post that “inhumane living conditions” with lack of clean water will enable Hepatitis A to spread further.

Of course they do, they have thrown everything they can at destroying the world for their global dystopian paradise, all they have left is to try the same old stuff even harder.

The virus known as “satan-24” - far deadlier than covid-19.

It is also known as “allah-24”.

Their hospitals had plenty of ordnance and military equipment for Hamas. A little short on medical equipment, though.

They have strong immune systems. They will survive.
The median age of Palestinians is 19.6. They have been brought up to hate Israelis.

islam is the virus that infects the world.

the other deadly pathogen is communism, with globalism quickly catching up to the two front runners.
