Humanitarian Update
YEMEN HUMANITARIAN Covering 12 March – 18 March UPDATE 2018 | Issue 7 DIPHTHERIA VACCination CAMPAIGN targetS 2.7 MILLION CHILDREN National and international partners have completed a large-scale vaccination campaign with the aim to control the spread of diphtheria in Yemen. Targeting nearly 2.7 million children aged six weeks to 15 years in 11 governorates, the campaign focused on locations reporting suspected cases of diphtheria and areas at high risk of spread of the infectious respiratory disease. On the west coast where violence has recently escalated, 835,775 children were targeted in Al Hudaydah, Hajjah, Al Mahwit and Raymah governorates. The campaign, supported by WHO and UNICEF, is part of a larger response plan that includes strengthening surveillance and case detection, enhancing laboratory testing capacity, procuring and distributing diphtheria anti-toxins to health facilities, and training and deploying rapid response teams to trace contacts and provide preventive treatment in communities. Health education and awareness campaigns were conducted to teach people how to protect themselves against diphtheria and other infectious diseases. First reported in October 2017, diphtheria has spread rapidly, infecting more than 1,300 people and killing over 70. Almost 80 per cent of the caseload are children and young adults below 25 years of age. The rapid spread of the disease highlights major gaps in routine vaccination coverage in recent years and signifies a collapsing health system where only half of all health facilities are partially or fully functioning. In November and December 2017, WHO and UNICEF vaccinated almost 450,000 children under 7 years of age against diphtheria in Ibb – the worst affected governorate accounting for nearly 35 per cent of all reported cases.

The country’s many conflicts are interconnected and can no longer be separated by clear divisions between external and internal actors and events. Throughout 2019, the Houthis and the Government of Yemen made little headway towards either a political settlement or a conclusive military victory. In a continuation from 2018, the belligerents continued to practice economic warfare: using economic obstruction and financial tools as weapons to starve opponents of funds or materials. Profiteering from the conflict is endemic.

This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of P. falciparum malarial disease among patients in Abs region, Hajjah Governorate, Yemen from September 2013 to May 2014. Both thick and thin films were made and stained using Giemsa stain. Blood smears of 1528 cases out of 8434 individuals showed malarial parasites in their blood, the overall prevalence percentage was 18.1%. Male subjects were more infected (18.17%) compared to females (18.04%). Incidence of falciparum malaria was higher in winter in comparison to other seasons. The infection mostly occurred in age groups of five to fourteen years old. Regarding the symptoms, patients showed fever (100%), followed by chills (89.8%), headache (85.4%) and vomiting (54.7%).

YEMEN Food Security Outlook October 2019 to May 2020 Large-Scale Assistance Needs and Risk of Famine (IPC Phase 5) Likely to Persist As War Nears Five Years
YEMEN Food Security Outlook October 2019 to May 2020 Large-scale assistance needs and risk of Famine (IPC Phase 5) likely to persist as war nears five years KEY MESSAGES • Ongoing conflict continues to disrupt livelihoods, reduce Current food security outcomes, October 2019 incomes, and drive very poor macroeconomic conditions including significantly high prices of food and non-food commodities. It is estimated that approximately 17 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance, representing the largest food insecure population in the world. Crisis (IPC Phase 3) and Emergency (IPC Phase 4) outcomes are widespread. A risk of Famine (IPC Phase 5) persists under a worst-case scenario in which conflict significantly disrupts port operations or cuts off food supply for a prolonged period of time. • Fuel shortages since September have impacted humanitarian operations in Sana’a and other Houthi-controlled areas in northern and central Yemen. This has negatively impacted livelihoods and exacerbated logistical challenges already faced Source: FEWS NET in delivering assistance. Despite these and conflict-related FEWS NET classification is IPC-compatible. IPC-compatible analysis constraints, humanitarian assistance has scaled-up in 2019, follows key IPC protocols but does not necessarily reflect the consensus driving some food security improvements. Assistance deliveries of national food security partners. are expected to continue during the projection period, though delays and pipeline breaks remain possible. • Conflict and flooding in western areas of Yemen have increased displacements and led to access constraints. In September, increased conflict was observed in Al Hudaydah and Hajjah. In Aden, conflict subsided in September after high levels in August.
