The 8 yrs siege on Gaza and the unsupported government make about 400 hundred medical doctors unemployed even the governmental hospitals need more far than this number .
According to PCHR Statistics about the 50-day war 2014, 2191 Palestinians were killed and more than 527 of them were children, about 3306 children were wounded and had temporary or permanent disabilities.
According to the United Nations Relief and Work Agency (UNRWA), more than 300,000 Gazans had been sheltering in its schools on August19th 2014, and up to 500,000 people have been displaced by the conflict.
The UN estimates that more than 20,000 homes have been reduced to rubble or rendered uninhabitable and workers are racing to avert humanitarian crisis by fixing damaged water mains and power lines .
Out reach medical Services
The Out Reach medical services became necessary in Gaza to cover wide range of children of borderlines areas, children without shelters, uninsured children and children with low socioeconomic backgrounds and to cover another group of low educated careless group.
Common Children Health problems In Gaza Strip most preschool and school age children complain of :
● Anemia and dietary efficiencies

Anemia Among Gazan Children
Anemia Among Gazan Children
A cross-sectional study was conducted between May and September 2012. A total of 357 preschool children were selected using multistage sampling method from Jabalya refugee camp, El Remal urban area, and Al Qarara rural area. Anthropometric indicators for children were measured using the WHO guideline. Descriptive and multivariate analyses were conducted to determine the prevalence and associated factors of anemia.
The overall prevalence of anemia was 59.7% among preschool children in the Gaza Strip, 46.5% and 13.5% of which are mild and moderate, respectively. Boys were more susceptible to this deficiency than girls. Hemoglobin level decreased in children living in poor households. Underweight children were more susceptible to anemia than normal weight children

Underweight children were more susceptible to anemia than normal weight children
Infectious Diseases
Of most common are gastrointestinal parasites among pre-school children in Gaza.
A study of 679 stool specimens were collected from pre-school
children aged <10 months to 60 months attending Ard El-Insan Association
(Community primary health care center) in Gaza city. Stool specimens were
inspected by a direct smear microscopy and sedimentation techniques. The
study found that 16.6% of the studied children were infected with intestinal
parasites. Infection with Giardia lamblia showed the highest prevalence
(10.3%) among other parasites detected. Intestinal parasite prevalence was
higher among male children than females. All age groups were susceptible
for parasitic infection and no clear trend due to age.
Possible causes that infections are common :
● Overcrowded shelters and houses
● Water pollution
● Bad sanitary measures
Other common infections in Gazan Kids :
● Upper respiratory infections, Otitis Media
● All types of Gastroenteritis
● Meningitis
Hereditary Problems :
Hereditary and congenital problems are of the highest rates
Hereditary and congenital problems are of the highest rates
among the world here in Gaza, this mainly because of :
● Traditions of relatives marriage
● Early marriage (sometimes children marriage)
● Chemical effects of war weapons
● Lack of genetic consultation and advisory campaigns.
