WHO Scales Up Support to I.R. Iran in partnership with UNHCR - October 2021
Description
WHO Representative and Head of Mission to the Islamic Republic of Iran, Dr Syed Jaffar Hussain at a delivery and maternal services facility dedicated to the foreign population in the area to respond to the large population of Afghans in the province.WHO Scales Up Support to I.R. Iran in partnership with UNHCR for Providing Health Services to Afghan Refugees, Host Communities in Kerman ProvinceThe World Health Organization plans to give boost to its support to the Islamic Republic of Iran in delivering healthcare services to the Afghan community as well as the hosting population in the country, orchestrated in collaboration with UNHCR and other local partners and in light of the recent developments in neighboring Afghanistan which has spurred a new influx of refugees into the country.The decision was announced by WHO Representative and Head of Mission to the Islamic Republic of Iran, Dr Syed Jaffar Hussain, who visited the southern Kerman Province in close proximity to the Iran-Afghanistan border on Wednesday, 27 October, at the head of a WHO delegation of technical experts and met with local and provincial authorities of Kerman University of Medical Sciences.The refugee-exclusive vaccination centre in Sharafabad, a densely Afghan-populated district in Kerman, provides COVID-19 immunization services to 400-500 Afghan nationals on a daily basis regardless of their legal status. The visitors get a choice between the Chinese vaccine Sinopharm, and the Indian jab COVAXIN, donated by the government of India. Refugees under 18 years of age are also inoculated using Sinopharm at this centre. Visitors also get vaccine-related health information in the form of brochures before and after vaccination.The current Afghan refugee crisis comes on top of millions of Afghan refugees already in neighboring countries. Iran has been hosting Afghan refugees since 1979, and according to UNHCR, there are between 3 and 3.5 million Afghans in Iran. Nearly one million are considered to be de facto refugees, about half a million have Iranian visas, and the rest are considered to be undocumented.On his mission to Kerman, Dr Hussain also met with local and provincial authorities of Kerman University of Medical Sciences and paid a visit to the Research Institute of Future Studies in Health and the Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine Comprehensive Center, both affiliated to the Kerman University of Medical Sciences.-Title of WHO staff and officials reflects their respective position at the time the photo was taken.
