How is Nakonde reaching children for polio vaccination?
Polio vaccination has to reach the places routine services miss
Nakonde’s third-round polio campaign is targeting about 70,109 children under five through door-to-door teams and vaccination points at schools, markets, and other public places. Border communities can be difficult to reach, but they are not peripheral to disease prevention. The campaign dose also does not replace routine immunisation, which is an important message for families. The full report from Lusaka Times explains the local effort.
