The most striking issue under review is the resurfacing of the deadly COVID 19 with its Delta variant in Liberia. The variant has rapidly spread throughout the country, thus overwhelming hospitals and taking an aggressive death tour on the local population. World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Embassy have declared Liberia a red zone due to the surge of the COVID 19 Variant. The Government of Liberia has enforced mandatory health regulations, including the compulsory wearing of masks, washing hands, keeping a safe distance, and keeping away from crowded places. But due to the poverty and ignorance of our society, these regulations are complicated to hold, if not impossible. Before the outbreak of COVID 19, the Liberian health sector was already devastated by the lack of drugs, professionals, health petitioners, and other medical equipment. This new outbreak has made the situation even worse. The entire country is sick, and everyone is seeking self-medication to keep themselves saved. In addition to this grief surge of the COVID 19 and already devastated Liberia economy has gone into a coma.
As a result of the unbearable circumstance, Camp for Peace Liberia did not carry out any former camping activities during the period under review. However, plans are currently being made to host a mass camp come December this year, considering that COVID 19 will be minimized in Liberia.
During the period under review, we were also engaged in encouraging our campers and participants through multi-media or radio to continually wear their masks, keep a distance from each other, and regularly and frequently wash their hands during all activities.
