RAMALLAH: Health Minister, Majid Abu Ramadan, said the escalating Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip is preventing children from receiving their second dose of the polio vaccine. In a statement released on Wednesday, Abu Ramadan highlighted the significant risks faced by both children and healthcare workers, which impede their access to vaccination centers. He emphasized that the second dose of the vaccine is crucial for achieving full immunity against polio.
