Yemen received its first shipment of 360,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses on Wednesday. Officially, Yemen has recorded 4,000 coronavirus cases and less than 900 deaths, but doctors say a silent surge is underway. Yemen is experiencing the world’s worst humanitarian crisis more than six years after the start of the U.S.-backed, Saudi-led war. This is a doctor at a COVID-19 treatment center in Aden.

Dr. Zainab al-Qaisi: “The center is overwhelmed. We need oxygen and to expand intensive care across all provinces. The two most important things are funding and more staff. We need more staff, because the rise in cases is not normal.”
