.@FMOH_SUDAN, @WHO and @UNICEF have launched the first of two rounds of a nationwide polio vaccination campaign targeting more than 4.3 million children aged under 5 years across 7 of #Sudan’s states.
More than 3 years of conflict have disrupted routine immunization services, leaving approximately 1.5 million children insufficiently protected against polio and vaccine-preventable diseases.
This campaign aims to close immunity gaps and strengthen national protection against polio.
But to sustain these and other vital health services, there is one overwhelming need for the people of Sudan: long overdue and lasting peace.
