The ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict has led to a public health crisis in Gaza, with over 150,000 people, mostly children, contracting dangerous skin diseases like scabies, chickenpox, lice, and impetigo. Unhygienic living conditions in overcrowded refugee camps, lack of access to clean water and sanitation, and contaminated water sources are the primary causes. Children's vulnerable immune systems due to malnutrition also contribute to the rapid spread of these skin infections. Healthcare workers are overwhelmed, lacking sufficient medical supplies to treat the growing number of cases. Experts fear the potential emergence of other serious skin conditions like leishmaniasis if the situation is not addressed. This humanitarian crisis requires urgent attention and action from the international community.
