In just the past few weeks, the number of COVID-19 cases have surged in Gaza —one of the most densely populated places in the world, where social distancing is impossible and the health system is already critically overburdened.

More than 20,000 people in Gaza have tested positive for the virus, and over 100 have died. And with two-thirds of Gaza’s 150 intensive care beds already filled, fear is growing that the outbreak will devastate the population.
