Lagos To Immunise 4.3 Million Children by EkoAtlantic2(f): 9:22am On Dec 15, 2012 |
The Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Dr Jide Idris, on Friday said the state plan to immunise 4.3 million children in the four-day Mop-Up immunisation campaign against Poliomyelitis, scheduled to commence today. The commissioner, who said that immunisation remains the most cost-effective and efficient strategy to prevent the scourge in the state, urged parents and guardians to ensure that their children of under-five receive the immunisation when health workers come to their doors. He said in spite of the fact that Lagos State had not recorded incidence of polio since 2009, the state is not resting on its oars to prevent the outbreak of the scourge. Idris, however, raised the fear that continuous influx of people into the state, especially from the northern states, where the polio cases are still recorded, threaten the polio-free record of the state. He said: ”The 4-day. Campaign would be implemented by 2,254 house-to-house teams, 1,504 transit and 778 fixed/ transiently fixed posts teams.” http://thenationonlineng.net/new/news/lagos-to-immunise-4-3-million-children/ |
