Vitamin A and deworming campaign underway in Bor
A four-day vitamin A and deworming immunization campaign is ongoing in Bor town of Jonglei State.
The campaign, which kicked off on Monday, targets children aged between 0-5 years in the area.
Dr. Samuel Majur, the director-general in the state ministry of health, told Radio Tamazuj on Wednesday that the drive aims at giving immunity and providing flood-affected children in Bor and other counties of Jonglei with protection against worm.
“This vaccination is for all the children from 0 to 59 months. We are targeting all the children in the 9 counties of Jonglei. Giving deworming tablets is necessary because diarrhea is rampant among children in Jonglei due to the floods,” he said.
