Genetic sequencing analysis indicates that that this outbreak is linked to the two-year long outbreak that took place in North Kivu and Ituri provinces from 2018 to 2020 and does not represent a new spill-over event.

The source of the infection is still under investigation. WHO teams are on the ground to support the government-led response.

As the crisis enters its tenth year, 6.6 million people remain internally displaced and 5.6 million people have fled the country as refugees, the vast majority to neighbouring countries.

Out of 20.5 million people in Syria, more than half of the population are in dire need of health assistance. The essential health service infrastructure requires extensive maintenance and rehabilitation to provide a minimum level of service delivery. There is a chronic shortage of health care staff driven by displacement, death, injury, and flight of health workers, particularly in northeast Syria.

Half a million children are chronically malnourished and non-communicable diseases and epidemic-prone diseases are the most common causes of illness in Syria, especially among displaced communities, where access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene services are consistently worse than in resident and host communities.

WHO continues its lifesaving work with partners inside Syria and cross-border from Turkey to respond to urgent health needs to protect the lives of millions of vulnerable men, women and children

With quarterly updates this portal presents a better breakdown of our work, navigating through the different strategic priorities, global outcomes and outputs through which WHO’s work is delivered. Countries specify any financial details at activity (output) level in order to meet WHO’s requirement for IATI compliance.

IATI Compliance

Following our commitment to become IATI compliant in 2017, we have implemented the IATI standard by both offering easily accessible country pages with all the relevant information such as budget, expenditures and funding up to the output level. We also offer downloads of country data in the IATI standard (XML) files.
