Mālama ʻo UNICEF i kahi hapalua biliona syringes no ka lāʻau lapaʻau COVID-19 ma ka hopena o ka makahiki

Ke laikini ʻia nā lāʻau lapaʻau no ka hoʻohana ʻana, pono ka honua i nā nui o nā ʻakehe e like me nā kaha o ka lāʻau āpau, i ʻōlelo ʻia UNICEF ma ka lā Pōʻakahi.

I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka hoʻomākaukau, i kēia makahiki, e hoʻāhu ʻo UNICEF i nā syringes he 520 miliona i loko o kāna mau waihona ukana, kahi ʻāpana o kahi hoʻolālā nui aʻe e hoʻomākaukau i kahi piliona piliona no ka hoʻohana ʻia ʻana ma o 2021, e hōʻoia i ka hoʻolako mua ʻana a kōkua i ka hōʻea ʻana o nā syringes ma mua o ka hāʻawi ʻia ʻana o nā lāʻau āpau.

Ma ka makahiki 2021, ke kuhi nei he nui nā kaona o nā lāʻau āpau o COVID-19, manaʻo ʻo UNICEF e hoʻopuka ma kahi o hoʻokahi piliona mau ʻenekini e kākoʻo i nā hana hoʻowalewale COVID-19 ma luna o 620 miliona mau ʻakehe e kūʻai ʻia e ka ʻoihana no nā papahana hoʻoliʻiliʻi ʻē aʻe, e kūʻē i nā maʻi ʻē aʻe e like me measles, typhoid a me nā mea hou aʻe.

ʻO ka hana mōʻaukala

"ʻO ka hoʻomake ʻana i ka honua e kūʻē iā COVID-19 kekahi o nā hana nui i ka moʻolelo o ke kanaka, a pono mākou e neʻe me ka wikiwiki e hiki ai ke hana i nā lāʻau āpau," wahi a Henrietta Fore, UNICEF Executive Director.

"I mea e neʻe wikiwiki ai ma hope, pono mākou e neʻe wikiwiki i kēia manawa. I ka hopena o ka makahiki, e loaʻa ana iā mākou ma kahi o ka hapalua biliona mau ʻonikū i hoʻonohonoho mua ʻia kahi e hiki ai iā lākou ke hoʻouna koke a me ka uku kūpono. Lawa kēlā me nā syringes e hoʻopuni i ka honua i hoʻokahi a me ka hapa manawa. ”

E kūlike me ka hana lōʻihi ma waena o nā hoa ʻelua, ʻo Gavi ke kuikahi ākea ākea e uku aku iā UNICEF no ke kumukūʻai o nā syringes a me nā pahu palekana, a laila e hoʻohana ʻia no ka COVID-19 Vaccine Global Access Facility (COVAX Facility) a no nā mea ʻē aʻe. Hāʻawi ʻia nā papahana hoʻolauleʻa kālā Gavi, inā pono

'Nā pahu palekana' no ka hoʻolilo

Ma waho o nā syringes, kūʻai aku nō hoʻi ʻo UNICEF i nā pahu maluhia he 5 miliona i hiki ai ke hoʻolei ʻia nā syringes a me nā nila ma kahi ʻano palekana e nā limahana o nā keʻena olakino, e hoʻemi ana i ka makaʻala o nā ʻāʻī koʻokoʻo a me nā maʻi i lawe ʻia i ke koko.

Hāpai nā pahu palekana āpau i nā syringes he 100. No laila, ua ʻōlelo ʻo UNICEF he "puʻupuʻu" ia o nā ʻōʻō me nā pahu palekana e hōʻoia i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā pahu palekana e hele pū me nā nīele.

ʻO nā pono o ka pahu kui e like me nā syringes a me nā pahu palekana i kahi ola o ʻelima mau makahiki, nā memo a ka ʻoihana. Lōʻihi hoʻi nā manawa kēpau no ia mau pono e like me ka nui o kēia mau mea a pono e lawe ʻia e ka ukana kai. ʻO nā lāʻau lapaʻau, nā mea wela ka wela, lawe pinepine ʻia e ka ea.

Ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻomalu kūʻai nui no Gavi, ʻo UNICEF ka mea kūʻai lāʻau lapaʻau hoʻokahi nui loa ma ka honua, ke kūʻai nei i ʻoi aku ma mua o 2 biliona mau lāʻau o nā lāʻau āpau i kēlā me kēia makahiki no ka hana maʻamau ʻana i ka manawa āpau a me ka pane ʻana o ka outbreak ma kahi o nā ʻāina he 100. I kēlā me kēia makahiki,

Hāʻawi ʻo UNICEF i nā lāʻau lapaʻau no ka hapa o ka hapa nui o nā keiki o ka honua a kūʻai aku a hoʻolako i nā lako ma kahi o 600-800 miliona mau ʻōʻō no nā polokalamu pale ʻana maʻamau.

Hoʻonui nui

Hiki paha i nā kolikoli COVID-19 ke hele a hāhā paha i kēlā helu, kaukaʻi ʻia i ka helu i hana hope ʻia a hoʻopaʻa ʻia e UNICEF.

"Ma kahi o ʻelua mau makahiki, ua kōkua ʻo Gavi i kahi 822 miliona mau keiki hou aʻe mai nā ʻāina nāwaliwali loa o ke ao nei e kiʻi i nā lāʻau lapaʻau koʻikoʻi, hoʻōla ola," i ʻōlelo ʻia ʻo Seth Berkley, CEO o Gavi. "ʻAʻole hiki ke hiki ʻole kēia me ka ʻole o kā mākou hui pū ʻana me UNICEF, a ʻo kēia hana like like e lilo ia i mea nui i kā Gavi hana me ka COVAX Facility."

E hōʻoia i ka lawe ʻia ʻana o nā lāʻau āpau a mālama ʻia i ka mahana kūpono, UNICEF, me ka World Health Organization (WHO), ke hoʻopuka nei hoʻi i nā lako kaulahao anuanu e kū nei a me ka hiki ke mālama ʻia - ma nā wahi pilikino a me nā lehulehu - a hoʻomākaukau pono ana alakaʻi no nā ʻāina e loaʻa nā lāʻau lapaʻau.

"Ke hana nei mākou i nā mea āpau e hiki ai iā mākou ke hāʻawi i kēia mau lako pono me ka maikaʻi, kūpono a me ke ana wela kūpono, e like me kā mākou hana maikaʻi ʻana ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa," wahi a Ms.

ʻOiai ma mua o ka maʻi maʻi COVID-19, me ke kākoʻo mai Gavi a me ka hui pū ʻana me WHO, ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻo UNICEF i nā lako kaulahao anuanu e kū nei ma nā wahi olakino i nā ʻāina e hōʻoia i ka palekana a me ka maikaʻi o nā lāʻau āpau i kā lākou huakaʻi.

Hoʻoikaika nā Fridges i nā lawelawe olakino

Mai ka makahiki 2017, ua hoʻouka ʻia ma kahi o 40,000 mau pahu anuanu me ke anuanu e pili ana i nā wahi olakino, ka hapanui ma ʻApelika, i ʻōlelo ʻia e ua ʻoihana nei.

A i nā ʻāina he nui, hoʻolaha ʻo UNICEF i nā ʻenehana lā e kōkua i nā ʻāina e mālama i nā kaulahao lako.

Ma Sudan Hema, kahi ʻāina uila liʻiliʻi loa ma ka honua, kahi i ʻoi aku ai ke anilā ma mua o 40 kekelē Celsius, ʻoi aku ma mua o 700 mau keʻena olakino i hoʻolako ʻia e UNICEF me nā pahu uila uila - ma kahi o 50 pākēneka o nā pono āpau āpau.
