Early this month, in a bold step to safeguard the health and future of our children, the Ministry of Health launched one of its most zealous health campaigns yet, aiming to immunise over 20 million children in Kenya against life-threatening diseases like tetanus, polio, Rubella and measles.
This campaign—launched in collaboration with global health partners such as WHO, Unicef, PATH and Gavi— is a significant step toward universal child immunisation and a massive communication undertaking. The campaign reached many zero-dose children (those who had never received routine immunisation).
