Yellow Fever and Polio Immunization: Lagos State Partners with UNICEF to Engage Media
In a bid to combat vaccine-preventable diseases, the Lagos State Government and UNICEF have joined forces to launch a statewide immunization campaign. The campaign aims to vaccinate over 95% of residents aged 9 months to 44 years against yellow fever and other diseases.
During a media orientation, healthcare experts and UNICEF representatives emphasized the importance of media in spreading accurate information and combating vaccine misinformation. Journalists were briefed on the campaign's logistics and strategies for increasing awareness.
With rising cases of yellow fever and measles in Nigeria, this initiative is crucial for preventing further outbreaks and ensuring a healthier future for Lagos residents.
