Campaign: Vaccination Campaign and Refugee Camps

campaign: UNICEF said the vaccination campaign involves 900,000 doses of the vaccine delivered by more than 200 mobile teams, making it the second-largest oral vaccination campaign of its kind, after another in Haiti last year, according to CBC. The campaign will also target residents of older refugee camps that have existed in Bangladesh since the 1990s. No cases of the potentially life-threatening disease have yet appeared in makeshift camps in Bangladesh. The World Health Organization has tallied some 10,000 cases of diarrhea among the refugees, and says unhygienic and cramped conditions raise the potential for a cholera outbreak. Wherever there are refugee crises, there is always this crisis of cholera outbreak and so on, because people live in a very crowded position, there is scarcity of services like water, sanitation, and everything, said Sakil Faizullah, a spokesman for UNICEF.
