Since 1987, the Extended Program on Immunization in Bangladesh has saved the lives of more than 3.5 million children . It has led to the eradication of poliomyelitis and the elimination of neonatal tetanus, and has possibly made the biggest contribution towards Bangladesh's achievement of Millennium Development Goal 4 well ahead of schedule. At least 95% of the 157 million people living in this country have access to vaccines - this in a country where only around 60% of the population has access to the power grid, that sees annual floods, and that has a challenging road transport system and high levels of corruption. This has made Bangladesh's vaccine delivery system a role model for delivering effective interventions in resource-poor settings. This successful story cannot be pinned down on any one crucial factor, but it is rather a result of the development of an effective system involving collaboration between multiple dedicated blocks of society – from front line workers to politicians to journalists.

HERAT, 6 October 2015 – Some 300,000 children are being immunized against polio in two of Afghanistan’s western provinces as part of a UN-supported campaign to combat the crippling disease.
Following concerns about an outbreak from a new polio case in Herat, the Ministry of Public Health, together with the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) and World Health Organization (WHO), commenced an immunization campaign throughout Farah and Herat.
“The emergence of a polio case in the Shindand district of Herat can be a threat, and if we don’t act on an emergency basis, children in some vulnerable areas could be affected by the virus,” said Ahmed Shah Ahmedi, a UNICEF official.
Mr. Ahmedi explained that the three-day vaccination campaign follows on the heels of a nationwide programme, launched earlier this year, that vaccinated children in all districts across the western regions.
Wahid Rahmani, the coordinator of the anti-polio programme at Herat’s Directorate of Health, said insecurity in different areas of the country and movement of individuals and families from the south to the western provinces have contributed to the spread of the virus.
This year, health officials have identified 12 new cases of polio throughout the country. Of these, five were in the western region: four in Farah and one in Herat.
According to WHO, polio remains endemic in only two countries – Afghanistan and Pakistan – with the eradication of polio globally depending primarily on stopping the disease in these countries.

Anganwadi worker in every targeted village teams up with a small group of local resource people who are then given a basic training in nutrition, childcare and hygiene. Once trained, the team visits pregnant women and mothers of newborns in their homes to educate them about safe delivery, breastfeeding, immunisation, and other essential care practices during pregnancy and early childhood UNICEF is prioritizing reducing the high malnutrition and child mortality rates, and reaching out to millions of families in Jharkhand to address these concerns. The Dular strategy, which trains village women to counsel new mothers about breastfeeding and proper nutrition, is a successful approach that is already expected to prevent about one quarter of newborn deaths and save the lives of thousands of older babies and children. The Dular initiative is of particular importance to tribal children who are most vulnerable to disease, malnutrition and education disparities, as prejudice, isolation and misunderstanding make it difficult for these families to access services.

A woman, paralysed by polio, crawls to a water point in the Li-Rangu area, near the town of Yambio, capital of Western Equatoria State in Southern Sudan. UNICEF supports health services in the area, including immunization activities.
From 9 to 16 March 2011, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Mia Farrow and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador (United Kingdom) Martin Bell visited Southern Sudan to raise awareness on issues affecting children and their families at this historic juncture. The visit comes two months after the landmark January 2011 referendum in Southern Sudan, which overwhelmingly endorsed the creation of an independent country for the region. The new nation is slated for creation on 9 July this year. The referendum was part of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement ending the civil war, which killed two million people, displaced four million, and decimated social services. The situation of children and women in the region remains critical: One of every seven children dies before age five, and one in six Southern Sudanese women dies from pregnancy-related causes. Only an estimated 10 per cent of children are fully vaccinated, and fewer than half of all children have completed five years of primary education. Millions of people continue to be affected by insecurity, including in Western Equatoria State, which borders the Democratic Republic of the Congo. From there, rebels from the Ugandan Lords Resistance Army (LRA) are continuing to attack, abduct and rape villagers on both sides of the border. Additionally, the Abyei area, which straddles disputed territory between northern and southern parts of Sudan, is also experiencing fighting. Ms. Farrow and Mr. Bell visited the Abyei area, where they met with children and women displaced by recent clashes. In Western Equatoria, they visited a transit centre for children rescued from the LRA, primary and maternal health care facilities and a support site for people affected by HIV/AIDS. In Warrap State, they also met with families who had been displaced during the civil war and were returning home. In Juba, capital of Southern Sudan, they met with government officials and representatives from UN, NGO and other partners.
Premier John Horgan and Dr. Penny Ballem, executive lead, B.C.’s immunization plan, announce that a new partnership will employ more than 1,400 tourism and hospitality workers in mass vaccination clinics — creating hundreds of jobs for B.C.’s hard-hit tourism, hospitality and sport sectors.

Block-Chandanpur, Dist-Puri, Odisha, INDIA..Diphtheria-Tetanus and pertussis vaccine bottels arranged for a photograph at district Programme Management Unit, NRHM in Puri. Immunization is one of the most cost effective public health interventions, preventing around 2 million child deaths each year worldwide, and IndiaÕs Immunization Program is the largest in world with respect to the quantity of vaccines used and the number of beneficiaries. Here, Routine Immunization (RI) saves the lives of 400,000 children annually. In OdishaÕs 30 districts and 314 blocks, it is not easy for health workers to reach a population of 4.1 crore. With 30% of the areas difficult to reach, 22% tribal population, 48% people in the BPL category and 17% schedule cast population, Odisha has been one of the most challenges states for them in terms of geography and demography. Despite these odds, during 2013-14, the state provided immunization services at a cost of Rs 30 crore to 8,54,619 children between 0-1 years and 9,40,081 pregnant women to prevent seven diseases such as tuberculosis, diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, polio, measles and Hepatitis B. In addition, vitamin A is also administered to children. The current level of full immunization coverage is 62.3% for children (AHS 2011-12), officials say. Since 2009, the program has manifested itself in the Teeka Express, where participation of civil society, NGOs, porters, rickshaw drivers and volunteers strengthen the vaccine delivery logistics. This system has been implemented in 280 out of the 314 blocks of the state, and has reduced vaccine shortage, improved vaccine quality, improved timeliness of reporting, ensured regularization of immunization in hard to reach areas and improved immunization waste management. Odisha governmentÕs RI program has been supported by UNICEF and has positively impacted vaccine logistics management. ..
