Severe earthquakes in Turkey and Syria

An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8, followed by a series of aftershocks, has hit northern Syria and southern Turkey last Monday, January 6, 2023. As of yesterday, a combined death toll of more than 37,000 had been recorded with the numbers expected to rise as rescue operations continue.

It is essential to ensure that victims have sufficient relief supplies such as food, water, shelter, heating as well as continuous access to basic health services and immediate medical care for injuries. It is also vital to have ongoing surveillance to prevent and prepare for any infectious, respiratory and or water-borne disease outbreaks.
