A ten-day measles vaccination campaign has been launched in Nangarhar Province to prevent the spread of the disease.
The Nangarhar provincial press office reported on Saturday, November 1, that the campaign was officially inaugurated to protect children’s health and curb the spread of contagious diseases.
Earlier, a similar campaign to eradicate polio had been launched in Paktika Province.
Each year, vaccination drives are conducted across Afghanistan to ensure children receive essential immunizations and to reduce the prevalence of infectious and contagious diseases among them.
