Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The delivery of COVID-19 vaccines to South Sudan\u2018s restive state of Jonglei has been disrupted by floods and insecurity, said Mohammed Malick Fall, visiting UN Children\u2019s Fund Regional Director for Eastern and Southern Africa Region. Addressing journalists in Juba on Friday, Mohammed said floods in Jonglei state and other parts of the country is another blow for supply chains.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe vaccine arrives up to a level of Bor but sometimes going out of Bor and reaching some of the villages become a challenge for the reason that are linked to security and flooding,\u201d Mohammed told reporters at Friday\u2019s press conference in Juba.<\/p>\n

Mohammed said the UN Children\u2019s Fund is doing to ensure timely deliveries of CIVID-19 vaccines to hot reach areas. \u201cIn areas where we have direct responsibility as partners, we are doing our level best to make sure that the supply of COVID-19 vaccines is delivered on time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The UN official reaffirmed UNICEF\u2019s readiness to continue assisting the government to deliver the vaccines to various states. \u201cWe facilitate a lot of access to vaccines but the government and other partners also have the responsibility but this requires us to step up our efforts and our support to the government in operational cost and now,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know to get the vaccines on people\u2019s arms, you just don\u2019t need to be transported by plane and arrive in the main airport of the country but you need the vaccine to also reach the last miles where it needs to be taken,\u201d he added. South Sudan has administered more than 218,154 doses of COVID vaccines so far.<\/p>\n
