  • Jerusalem/Ramallah, 18 February 2021 “I Imagine That If I Took the Vaccine, We Would Go Back to Our Normal Life Gradually.”
    Jerusalem/Ramallah, 18 February 2021 “I imagine that if I took the vaccine, we would go back to our normal life gradually.” Ala’*, 16, from Hebron RE: FREE AND EQUITABLE ACCESS AND DISTRIBUTION OF COVID-19 VACCINE IN OPT As humanitarian organizations working in the occupied Palestinian territory we write to ask you to ensure free and equitable access and distribution of the Covid-19 vaccine to Palestinians through fulfilment of legal responsibilities by the Government of Israel, the Palestinian authorities and third states. The Palestinian health system has been undermined to such an extent that it lacks the necessary financial or material resources to independently sustain an effective Covid-19 response. Gaza’s health system, in particular, is on the brink of collapse. Over 53 years of Israeli military occupation of Palestinian territory (oPt), including Israel’s prohibitive land closure and blockade of the Gaza Strip, severing the coastal enclave from the West Bank, have all helped produce the Palestinian health system’s current ailing condition. In the oPt, more than 2,100 people1 have already died as a result of the outbreak of the Covid- 19 pandemic. Gaza accounts for 28 per cent of all active cases, followed in the West Bank by the Hebron governorate (15 per cent) and East Jerusalem governorate (11.4 per cent). Health workers have been badly affected, with an estimated 4,000 infected, affecting the health system’s ability to sustain care. Meanwhile, the humanitarian impact is compounded by worsening poverty, food insecurity and the significant diversion of resources from other essential services.
