The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) made an urgent call for donations, with the aim of responding to the situation of the anger which is registered in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
“Urgent actions are needed to save lives, control morbidity and mortality from cholera in active foci and limit the spread of the disease,” the organization highlights through a statement published on its website.
Likewise, it indicates that financing of USD16,809,000 is required to support health response actions in both countries during the first 12 months of the response (October 2022 to September 2023).
“You can make a difference. Help save lives by supporting the delivery of essential supplies and critical assistance to people in need.
Likewise, the communiqué highlights the importance of donations from the international community, since they allow PAHO to provide its technical cooperation and deploy its operational and logistical support to face the existing and emerging public health challenges that affect the countries and territories of the Americas. In addition, he says that these are essential to expand the response capacity of governments and partners.
