Gaza hospitals overwhelmed by Hepatitis A and Impetigo outbreaks amid war
The United Nations is warning of what it calls a ‘frightening increase’ in Hepatitis A infections among Palestinian children in Gaza.
It’s reported 40,000 cases since the start of the war, compared to 85 in the 10 months before the conflict began.
Health facilities are struggling to cope.
