Click here  Monday, 19 February 2024 Dear journalists, Please find below the video footage and the message from WHO Director-General, Dr Tedros, on yesterday´s WHO/OCHA mission to Nasser Medical Complex in Gaza: https://x.com/drtedros/status/1759609372739551357?s=46&t=wUxmCYYori3cMalGNkaXFw After two days of being denied entry into the Nasser Medical Complex in #Gaza, yesterday @WHO and partners were allowed to go inside to assess the patients. As a result, lifesaving medical referral of 14 critical patients was facilitated. Two patients needed continuous manual ventilation throughout their journey. 9 patients are now receiving care in the European Gaza, International Medical Corps, UAE and Indonesia field hospitals, and 5 patients are in Al-Aqsa hospital. There are still more than 180 patients and 15 doctors and nurses inside Nasser. The hospital is still experiencing an acute shortage of food, basic medical supplies, and oxygen. There is no tap water and no electricity, except a backup generator maintaining some lifesaving machines. WHO, @PalestineRCS, @UNOCHA and other partners need sustained and safe access to continue lifesaving referrals for all patients in need of urgent care. The video will also be soon available on UNIFEED: https://www.unmultimedia.org/tv/unifeed/ https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3iQsabIPHH/?igsh=MTFscjk2eG5qMXEzNA%3D%3D https://www.linkedin.com/posts/tedros-adhanom-ghebreyesus_gaza-activity-7165377256729616385-zYh9/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop https://www.facebook.com/reel/1463003557621479 Photos are available on: https://photos.emro.who.int/galleries/374/situation-in-the-occupied-palestinian-territory-oc https://photos.hq.who.int/  Media contact:  You are receiving this NO-REPLY email because you are included on a WHO mail list.  |
