Sou= rce: Afghanistan Ministry of Public Health - MoPH) * Deaths from COVID-19: 1=2C375 * Samples tested: 98=2C718 Key concerns: Border crossing areas=2C in-country testing capacity=2C prot= ective equipment for frontline workers=2C maintaining essential health ser= vices=2C public complacency=2C sustained prevention and mitigation measure= s=2C messaging and rumour management Situation Overview: UPDATED MoPH data (https://moph-dw.gov.af/dhis-web-commons/security/login.action#/= ) shows that 37=2C596 people across all 34 provinces in Afghanistan are no= w confirmed to have COVID-19. Some 27=2C166 people have recovered=2C and 1= =2C375 people have died (68 of whom are healthcare workers). 98=2C718 peop= le out of a population of 37.6 million have been tested. Almost 10 per cen= t of the total confirmed COVID-19 cases are among healthcare staff. The ma= jority of the deaths were people between the ages of 40 and 69. Men in thi= s age group represent 50 per cent of all COVID-19-related deaths. Moreover= =2C men account for 71 per cent of the total COVID-19 confirmed cases alth= ough this may be the result of over-representation of men in testing. Due= to limited public health resources and testing capacity=2C as well as the= absence of a national death register=2C confirmed cases of and deaths fro= m COVID-19 are likely under-reported overall in Afghanistan. Kabul remains= the most affected part of the country in terms of confirmed cases=2C followed by Hirat=2C Balkh=2C Kandahar and Nangarhar provinces. Complacency and failure to follow public health advice is creating grave r= isks in the community with people generally not observing physical distanc= ing protocols. Recent modelling on COVID-19 projections=2C developed by th= e Centre for Humanitarian Data in collaboration with Johns Hopkins Applied= Physics Laboratory and released on 12 August=2C suggests cases and deaths= will continue to rise over the next four weeks. Modelling further suggest= s a significant increase in severe cases (potentially up to 4x the number)= should current preventative measures be lifted=2C creating grave implicat= ions for Afghanistan=E2=80=99s economy and people=E2=80=99s well-being. https://moph-dw.gov.af/dhis-web-commons/security/login.action#/ Hospitals and clinics continue to report challenges maintaining or expandi= ng their facilities=E2=80=99 capacity to treat patients with COVID-19 as w= ell as maintaining essential health services. WHO notes that it is importa= nt to ensure healthcare workers have the proper personal protection to car= ry out services. In addition=2C effective and accurate risk communication= messages are needed to re-assure people that it is safe to seek treatment= at hospitals and health centres and that health centres are carrying out= proper infection prevention and control measures. Current laboratory capa= city in Afghanistan remains limited. Humanitarian partners urge the Govern= ment of Afghanistan to ensure laboratories are appropriately equipped and= that procured supplies go to under-resourced health centres in a transpar= ent manner=2C so that life-saving support can be delivered to those most i= n need. WHO notes that when health systems are overwhelmed=2C as is being seen in= Afghanistan=2C both direct mortality from the outbreak and indirect morta= lity from vaccine-preventable and treatable conditions increase dramatical= ly. WHO stresses the need to balance the demands of responding directly to= COVID-19=2C with simultaneously engaging in strategic planning and coordi= nated action to maintain essential health service delivery=2C mitigating a= gainst the risk of system collapse. https://afghanistan.iom.int/IOM-COVID-19-Response-RCCE Cross Border: UPDATED The Milak (Nimroz) and Islam Qala-Dogharoon (Hirat) crossings with Iran ar= e officially open to commercial traffic and movement of documented Afghani= stan nationals. On 15 August=2C 9=2C227 people returned from Pakistan through the Spin Bol= dak border crossing. Ghulam Khan border crossing remains closed for pedest= rian movement. An additional 4=2C503 people returned from Pakistan through= Maktab Posta (3=2C863 people) and Nazar Posta (640 people)=2C both inform= al crossings around Spin Boldak. Pakistan continues to facilitate the move= ment of cargo trucks and containers into Afghanistan. Since 12 July=2C fou= r border crossing points (Ghulam Khan=2C Torkham=2C Angor Adda and Kharlac= hi) have been open for trucks six days a week (every day except Saturday).= On 12 August=2C Spin Boldak border crossing was also opened to facilitate= trade between the two countries. Borders with Tajikistan=2C Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan remain open only fo= r commercial traffic and crossings of passport holders back into Afghanist= an. Humanitarians emphasise the critical importance of maintaining a relia= ble flow of traffic for humanitarian cargo from all neighbouring countries= and are advocating for special consideration to expedite movement of huma= nitarian food and relief items through border crossings. Operational Issues: UPDATED A nationwide lockdown remains officially in place. According to reports=2C= (https://reliefweb.int/sites/reliefweb.int/files/resources/hag_quarterly_= access_report_q2_2020.pdf) public health advice is not being followed and= enforcement has been lenient. Measures to contain the spread of the virus= continue to vary across provinces where local authorities are responsible= for implementation. Provincial lockdown measures continue to periodically= impede humanitarian movement. For more information on access constraints= =2C please see the latest HAG Quarterly Access Report (Q2) (https://relief= web.int/sites/reliefweb.int/files/resources/hag_quarterly_access_report_q2= _2020.pdf) . Humanitarian partners remain active in responding to crises t= hroughout the country=2C including flooding and conflict-related displacem= ent=2C and continue to urge all parties to the conflict to facilitate unim= peded access to civilians so humanitarian assistance is not delayed. Commercial domestic flights have resumed after a three-month hiatus due to= the COVID-19 pandemic. The United Nations Humanitarian Air Service (UNHAS= ) has reduced domestic flight days from five to four days a week. UNHAS wi= ll continue to support any required evacuation and relocation flights duri= ng all days of the week. International commercial air travel has resumed with Air Arabia=2C Ariana= Airlines=2C Kam Air=2C and Emirates Airlines providing round-trip interna= tional flight services to/from Kabul. Emirates Airlines announced (https:/= /www.emirates.com/english/help/flying-to-and-from-dubai/tourists-travellin= g-to-dubai/) that effective from 1 August=2C all passengers travelling to= Dubai=2C including those in transit=2C must have a negative COVID-19 test= certificate issued by an Emirates-approved laboratory (https://c.ekstatic= =2Enet/ecl/documents/health-screening-documents/approved-laboratories.pdf) t= o be accepted on the flight. The test must be taken a maximum of 96 hours= before departure. Passengers are encouraged to check with airlines on fli= ght restrictions for international flights=2C as well as travel and immigr= ation entry requirements of their destination country. The UNHAS airbridge connecting Kabul and Doha continues to operate on Sund= ays=2C Tuesdays and Thursdays. Flights into Doha accommodate transiting pa= ssengers only. UNHAS has been closely monitoring demand on the Doha Airbri= dge and noted a significant reduction in passenger loads with the resumpti= on of commercial flights. However=2C since there is still inadequate clari= ty on continuity and predictability of services from commercial airlines= =2C UNHAS is fully committed to support the Doha Airbridge until 30 Septem= ber 2020 as per the initial plan. The next UNHAS flight is planned for Tue= sday=2C 18 August. ------------------------------------------------------------ Download the full update =C2=BB (https://www.humanitarianresponse.info/sit= es/www.humanitarianresponse.info/files/documents/files/strategic_sitrep_co= vid-19_16_august_2020_final.pdf) Click here to subscribe (http://eepurl.com/ydXVr) to future COVID-19 updat= es and other OCHA products.
