Concerns have mounted in displacement camps set up in northern Syria after two coronavirus cases were reported in the area.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reporting from northern Syria, an AGPS news correspondent said the two coronavirus-stricken persons have been quarantined at their tents. Their condition is stable.\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over recent months, AGPS has warned of an unabated outbreak of COVID-19 in Palestinian refugee camps in Syria, where limited access to running water, pharmacies and medical facilities means displacement camps are more susceptible to the spread of the highly infectious virus.<\/span><\/p>\n

Displacement camps set up in northern Syria are especially vulnerable as most hospitals and medical facilities have been bombed, rendering them out of order.<\/span><\/p>\n

AGPS stresses the need to supply Palestinian refugee camps with medicines, detergents, and disinfectants in order to help the displaced communities defend themselves against the deadly COVID-19 virus.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to recent updates, more than 13,848 confirmed cases have been recorded in northern Syria.<\/span><\/p>\n

AGPS is deeply concerned that the lack of transparency maintained by the Syrian government regarding the pandemic will result in a catastrophic situation in displacement camps, at a time when the deadly virus continues to claim the lives of thousands of people across the globe.<\/span><\/p>\n

AGPS calls on the national and international humanitarian organizations and concerned authorities to set an emergency plan in order to help curtail the highly-contagious virus.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
