Where there is hunger, disease follows closely behind. People who are weakened by acute malnutrition are more at risk of falling sick and dying from diseases such as cholera or malaria. #Tigray
Children are at the highest risk of dying from malnutrition. They catch infections more easily, take longer to recover, and may be weaker for the rest of their lives. This is why people need access to health services including nutritional care. #HealthForAll #Tigray
Access constraints and attacks on aid workers continue to undermine health services delivery, and increase the spread of diseases. Without an end to conflict and unhindered humanitarian access, the situation will not improve and more people will die. #Tigray
