PLO may be losing control of the pandemic

As a second wave of Coronavirus strikes, the PLO's experiencing fallout from it in the areas they occupy:
Despite both a partial and full lockdown of areas, the second wave of coronavirus infections within the Palestinian Authority (PA) seems to have hit harder than the first wave, with the leadership in Ramallah fearing they might lose control of the situation.

The number of active cases within the Authority was said to be 6,566, Three times the number of reported cases in early July.

At the beginning of the month, there were seven reported deaths from coronavirus, That number has now reached 58 fatalities according to the latest tally.

The most serious virus hotspot was the Hebron District, which alone held nearly 60% of the PA's COVID-19 patients. As a result, the area was subject to the harshest travel restrictions within the PA.

Head of Doctors’ Syndicate in Hebron Dr. Wael Abu Snina said that medical staff in his city were exhausted and suffered from a shortage of equipment.
And in this article, they're trying to make themselves sound like victims of Israel, because they're not allowed into areas under Israeli control, and pretend Israel's authorities aren't doing anything about the pandemic in Arabic areas:
The Palestinian Authority has been unable to impose COVID-19 containment measures to stop a surge of cases in some West Bank villages since breaking off security cooperation with Israel, Palestinian officials say.

While the PA has enforced strict curfews to slam the brakes on a coronavirus spike in the 40% of the West Bank under its control – primarily urban areas – it can no longer reach areas under Israeli control.
But that's because truly, they couldn't care less if their own subjects were put through such awful circumstances. The upper echelons only care about themselves. Now, the PLO could be paying a huge price through the Corona infections because of their past evils.
