  1. BACKGROUND

4.1 Context

When the COVID-19 outbroke in Wuhan, Mongolia has taken active precautionary measurements to prevent the spread of the virus since late January 2020. On 8 November 2020, Mongolia reported the first case of locally transmitted COVID-19. As of October 2021, Mongolia has suffered three large waves of COVID-19 and the total number of confirmed cases has exceeded 10% of its population, becoming one of the highest rates of transmission per capita globally. While Mongolia has taken early and decisive measures to prevent the inflow and outbreak of COVID-19, household-level impact caused by COVID-19 is long-lasting and the virus disproportionally hit the poor and vulnerable the hardest.[1] The government of Mongolia has vaccinated more than 90.5% of the adult population. According to the Ministry of Health, 32% of confirmed patients have been vaccinated– of that 26.3% were fully vaccinated for 14 days prior to getting infected.

 

4.2 The role of MRCS

The MRCS is a member of the State Emergency Commission (SEC) and is actively involved in the planning and designing of the national response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The SEC adopted the National COVID-19 response plan in March 2020. The role of MRCS is identified in the plan as:

  1. - To support and monitor the wellbeing of people who are at home isolation;
  2. - To receive and organize international humanitarian aid;
  3. - To conduct community surveillance, disseminate health awareness messages;
  4. - To mobilize human resource and technical resource if needed.

 

The MRCS is also working in close cooperation with Ministry of Health, NEMA and Ministry of Labor and Social Protection to effectively organize response operations and to deliver humanitarian assistance to the affected population. The MRCS has several roles in various working groups to deliver necessary support:

 

  1. Coordinator of the inter-agency risk communication and community engagement (RCCE) network to implement and monitor an effective action plan for communicating effectively with the public, engaging with communities, local partners and other stakeholders to help prepare and protect individuals, families and the public’s health during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  2. Member of the working group to vaccinate the elderly who need assistance to get vaccinated. MRCS volunteers were working at hotlines to register vaccine recipients and transporting the elderly people to the designated vaccination centres.
  3. Member of the Food Supply Operation Center established by the SEC to ensure continuously supply of food to the public during all-out readiness phases and coordinate pre-positioning of the emergency food supply in respective areas.
  4. Member of the working group to register and support unregistered vulnerable populations. MRCS is supporting the unregistered, homeless people to receive Government assistance by referring them to State registration centres.

 

 

4.3 Overview of MRCS COVID-19 response

The MRCS is working actively to support the COVID-19 response of the state across 21 provinces and 9 districts. From March 2020 to October 2021, MRCS has supported the health system and assisted vulnerable population. There are three goals for the operation:

1) Support the health system and frontline workers

2) Address socio-economic impacts and reduce vulnerability

3) Increase community preparedness and participation.

 

To complement the response effort, MRCS trained and mobilized 1,400 volunteers in public health in emergencies. Starting from July 2021, with technical guidance and coordination of national center for communicable diseases, MRCS volunteers have been doing contact tracing and working at each local health unit to provide information and deliver medicine package to people who’re receiving treatment at home. To increase the vaccine awareness, MRCS volunteers have been conducting awareness sessions at local communities and providing information over the phone.

 

Details on progress made by MRCS on its COVID-19 response operation can be obtained at: https://go.ifrc.org/emergencies/4286#reports

 

 

4.4 Support by different stakeholders

IFRC-In response to the direct and secondary impacts caused by the pandemic across different sectors, the IFRC Global Appeal on COVID-19[2] was launched on 31 January 2020 and extended until the 31 December 2022. This appeal has three operational priorities: 1. Sustaining Health and WASH; 2. Addressing Socio-economic Impacts; 3. Strengthening National Societies. Under this appeal, IFRC CCD Beijing office has been supporting MRCS for COVID-19 operations based on their National Society Response Plan (NSRP) since February 2020. Supported by the IFRC COVID-19 appeal, under the NSRP Phase I from February to December 2020, MRCS conducted activities including volunteer training and mobilization, food parcel and hygiene parcel distribution, construction of handwashing station, COVID-19 prevention information distribution etc. Under the NSRP Phase II from July to December 2021, the IFRC supported the MRCS for the COVID-19 operations on volunteer training and mobilization for contact tracing and vaccine awareness session, cash transfer for vulnerable households, and disseminating IEC materials for vaccination.

 

Other RCRC movement members-In addition to the IFRC Emergency Appeal, the MRCS COVID-19 operation has been supported by various other partners through bilateral arrangements. The list of partners from RCRC movement for MRCS COVID-19 response includes IFRC, ICRC, Australian Red Cross, Red Cross Society of China, Qatar Red Crescent Society, Turkish Red Crescent, Japanese Red Cross, Korean Red Cross.

 

  • Australian Red Cross – Provided financial and technical support to mobilize volunteers and increase epidemic/ pandemic preparedness of the NS.
  • Red Cross Society of China - Provided ambulance and PPE for the frontline workers.
  • Japanese Red Cross Society - Provided financial support to the COVID-19 response
  • The Republic of Korea National Red Cross- Provided financial support the COVID-19 response

 

Partners outside the movement-Furthermore, the MRCS has closely cooperation with other stakeholders such as WHO, UNICEF, MoH, NCCD and etc.

 

  • WHO- Providing technical and funding for volunteer mobilization.
  • Global fund - Funding for volunteer mobilization and food assistance.
  • UNICEF – Made humanitarian contingency agreement for WASH emergencies. Funding for emergency hygiene supplies.
  • Under a charity tele-concert on Independence Day “MONGOLIANS AT HOME”, which was organized by MRCS youth movement and with the cooperation of the Mongol HD TV, Khan Bank and VEP Production, MNT334 million was raised to purchase 5,572 food parcels to support the target groups at risk of malnutrition during the strict lockdown in the late 2020.

Since April 2021, Mongolian Red Cross Society (MRCS) has been collaborating with WHO and the National Center for Communicable Disease, to train and mobilize volunteers to bolster the contact tracing capacity of local public health units. The need for MRCS volunteers to support local health units is expected to continue well into the future.
