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.

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.

Nobody likes getting shots. No matter how skilled the person doing the injecting may be, they hurt – and some hurt a lot. The fear of going to the doctor and getting a shot is something that starts when we’re little and our parents take us for vaccinations, but we were given lollipops and stickers and told that the immunizations would keep us safe and let us grow big and strong. Unfortunately, that is not always the case.
There’s no doubt that vaccinations save lives, and in the vast majority of cases they cause absolutely no harm beyond a twinge or a low-grade fever — maybe a rash. But there are many documented cases in which the most commonly-administered vaccines have caused real and long-lasting harm — enough so that the federal government established a compensation program in 1988 that was specifically designed to provide financial support and reimbursement for those who have been harmed.
The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program provides victims of vaccine injuries with a no-fault process for claiming benefits: it is a straightforward and stress-free alternative to pursuing legal action against vaccine companies and health care providers. The government introduced the program out of fear of a return of diseases that had previously been eradicated: if vaccine providers were forced to fight lawsuits, the legal costs could lead to them discontinuing vaccines and the publicity would discourage citizens from getting the immunizations that they needed.
The process of filing a claim with the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program does not require representation by an attorney, but having a lawyer navigate the process is the best way to ensure that all the appropriate scientific and medical documentation is collected and prepared in a way that best advances your petition and proves that the symptoms and injury have been caused by a vaccine. An attorney will also ensure that all deadlines are met. For families struggling with the aftermath of a vaccine injury, taking care of paperwork is one less thing to worry about – and the program pays the legal fees for all claims that are approved.
Not every vaccine is covered by the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, and not every illness has been connected to having been immunized. The vaccines that are currently on the government’s compensation program list are:
DTAP
Hemophilus Influenzae Type B (hib)
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis B
Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
Influenza (Flu Vaccine)
Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR, MR, M, R)
Meningococcal
Pertussis (Whooping Cough)
Pneumococcal Conjugate
Polio
Rotavirus
Tetanus
Varicella (Chicken Pox)
There are many adverse side effects that can arise from getting an immunization. The most common are mild and temporary, including low-grade fever, pain at injection site, rash and flu-like symptoms. Injuries that are more long-lasting include physical damage to the area of injection, including permanent swelling and tenderness, lumps or nodules, and injuries to the nerves. Some patients receiving injections suffer rotator cuff injuries or frozen shoulder. If six months go by and these symptoms have not resolved, you are likely to be eligible for compensation for your injuries.
Other severe vaccine injuries and illnesses that are eligible for compensation from the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program include:
Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis
Arthritis
Brain Damage
Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
Diabetes Type 1
Guillain-Barre Syndrome
Optic Neuritis
Paralysis
POTS
Rash
Seizures
Transverse Myelitis
Death
If you or your child have suffered an injury or been diagnose with an illness that was caused by a vaccine, it is essential that you begin the process of filing a claim with the Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program as soon as possible. Doing so can provide you with compensation for the medical expenses you’ve already incurred, as well as the related medical bills you may incur in the future. You can also get up to $250,000 in compensation for pain and suffering you’ve suffered and can anticipate suffering, any lost wages, and more, but in order to be eligible all claims must be filed within the U.S. Court of Federal Claims within three years from the first appearance of symptoms, or two years from the date of a vaccine-related death.
At Shebell & Shebell, we believe that families that have suffered due to vaccine injuries have already paid too much in aggravation and pain, so we pay all the upfront costs of representing your case. You pay no fees – we will seek reimbursement for our costs from the government after we’ve won your case for you. Our goal is to make sure that you are well served by a skilled and knowledgeable attorney. Contact us today to set up a free consultation and learn more about your rights.

Block-Chandanpur, Dist-Puri, Odisha, INDIA..Poliomyelitis 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. .

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.

Chad, 2011: Immunization programmes by UNICEF and its partners save more children from disease than any other public health intervention. Since 2000, measles vaccinations have cut under-five deaths from this disease by 74 per cent. The world is also closer than ever before to eradicating polio everywhere. World Immunization Week – 21–28 April 2012 – calls for sustaining this commitment to reach even the most marginalized children. Vaccinating against polio, in Logone Occidental Region.

"The global community must make sure that every child lives, and lives a healthy life," said Anuradha Gupta, deputy CEO of GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance, speaking on behalf of all donors, including USAID. USAID has pledged $1 billion over the next three years to GAVI, pending Congressional approval, in support of GAVI's global plan to immunize 300 million additional children and save at least 5 million lives by 2020.
“La communauté mondiale doit s’assurer que chaque enfant vive et qu’il vive une vie saine », a affirmé Anuradha Gupta, Présidente adjointe de GAVI, l’Alliance mondiale pour les vaccins, s’exprimant au nom de tous les bailleurs, notamment l’USAID. L’USAID a promis plus d’un milliards de dollars pour les trois prochaines années à GAVI, moyennant l’approbation du Congrès, en appui au plan global de GAVI pour vacciner 300 millions d’enfants supplémentaires et sauver au moins 5 millions de vies d’ici 2020.

There have been no new cases of wild polio virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo since December 2011, a marked contrast from a high of 100 cases in 2010. World Immunizations Week, April 24 to 30, 2015, presented an opportunity to celebrate this exciting public health milestone and offered a chance to commit to reaching all the children who have not yet been vaccinated against preventable diseases. USAID contributes $3.5 million each year to polio vaccination efforts in the DRC through the World Health Organization (WHO), UNICEF and USAID’s Integrated Health Project. USAID also supports immunizations worldwide through direct support to GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance.
On April 28, 2015, in Mbankana, Kinshasa province, USAID officials joined the Prime Minister of the DRC, Augustin Matata Ponyo, the DRC Minister of Health, Dr. Felix Kabange Numbi, and representatives from GAVI and other international donors, at a ceremony at a newly built health center. The event honored DRC’s efforts to remain polio-free and launched a fleet of new refrigerated trucks for the safe transport of vaccines to remote areas of the country.

After her children struggled with diarrheal disease, Teresa was determined to get one-month-old Vusi vaccinated as soon as she heard about the availability of rotavirus vaccine. At the clinic, the nurse was also able to teach her about preventing other forms of diarrheal disease by boiling drinking water and keeping the baby and the environment clean.
