WHO Support and Initiatives
- Sri Lanka Vaccination Drive: WHO provided urgently needed syringes totaling 2 million, supporting vaccination efforts. Expert advice from Dr. Alaka Singh emphasized donor flexibility for responsive aid.
- COVAX Updates: COVAX delivered over 286 million vaccine doses, with Gavi and UNICEF administering support for equitable distribution.
- Training and Capacity Building: OpenWHO reported high engagement in COVID-19 response training (7,717 enrollments), including courses on Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (IDSR) to strengthen regional health systems.
From the Field – Emergency Response
- Afghanistan Airlifts: In coordination with Qatar and the UAE, WHO delivered critical medical supplies (e.g., insulin, COVID-19 tests) totaling 131 metric tonnes across six flights, aiding over 2.43 million people and supporting 19,000 surgeries. Continued shipments planned.
- Ethiopia Support: WHO's Dubai Logistics Hub shipped the largest humanitarian cargo (85 metric tonnes) to Ethiopia, reinforcing food insecurity and outbreak response efforts.
- Belarus Partnership: Collaborated with Germany to supply surgical masks (1.386 million, worth USD 435,204) to disabled children centers, promoting COVID-19 protection and psychosocial support.
- Cambodia Strategy: Rebooted COVID-19 strategy with focus on transmission suppression, including measures like limiting 3Cs (closed spaces) and promoting "3 Dos" (mask-wearing, handwashing, distancing) amid rising cases.
Partnerships and Collaborations
- Mini-cPIE Clinics: Peer-to-peer learning sessions conducted (13 reports submitted, 17 ongoing) to review and refine vaccination rollout strategies, sharing best practices like digital data tracking and community engagement.
- Lab Quality Assessment: A global proficiency test involved 3,300 labs; 97.3% results were correct, ensuring reliable SARS-CoV-2 testing.
