the first reports I read about a case of polio in Gaza was hinting it was Israel's fault.
But that is fake news:
And while a vaccination campaign would likely be effective, the situation is being used to try and force Israel to pause its efforts in Gaza for seven days.Last month, poliovirus type 2 was detected in 6 out of 7 sewage samples that were collected from Khan Yunis and Deir al-Balah and were passed to the Israeli Ministry of Health.
