This year, more than ever, Albertans should get immunized against influenza to protect their health and support the province’s fight against COVID-19.
Flu shots are now available free of charge at pharmacies and doctors’ offices across the province. Alberta Health Services (AHS) is also offering immunizations by appointment for those under five years old and those in their household.
This year’s flu season presents an additional challenge as Alberta responds to COVID-19. Immunization will help protect vulnerable Albertans, as well as decrease influenza-related tests, emergency room visits and hospitalizations during the pandemic.
The government has ordered a record 1.96 million doses of vaccine to help protect the health of Albertans.
“Getting immunized is more important now than ever before. It’s the best way to protect your health and the health of your friends and neighbours. It will also allow our health system to keep focusing on the fight against COVID-19 while we continue safely opening Alberta’s economy.”
Jason Kenney, Premier
“We’ve purchased a record amount of vaccine and made changes to ensure that getting your flu shot is as safe and easy as possible. By keeping cases of influenza low, we can make sure our health-care system can keep responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and all the other health-care needs that Albertans face every day.” said Tyler Shandro, Minister of Health.
“The flu shot won’t prevent COVID-19, but it will reduce your chances of getting sick with influenza and spreading it to others. While getting immunized helps, it’s also crucial to wash your hands often, cover coughs and sneezes and stay home when sick. If you have flu symptoms, book a test for COVID-19 as symptoms are similar. Let’s all do our part to keep one another safe.” said Dr. Deena Hinshaw, chief medical officer of health.

That's what the nurse described it as.
I had to have my immunization updates.
Turns out I'm overdue A LOT OF THEM.
The last time I had the bulk of them was back in 1990, when I was merely 5 years old!
And then the update dosage of Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B vaccine was also required.
And tetanus.
And Polio.
And rubina.
And loads more OTHER STUFF...
I had my Hep A and some other one mixed together and shot in my left arm.
And I had my Hep B shot in my right arm.
My right arm took 3 days to recover.
It also cost me 25 pounds too. Humph. And will probably cost me more in the future when I need to get my next two. It's also funny, because, again, miraculously I JUST had that right amount in my purse. Funny that. God providing yet again.
Anyway. I need to return again next tuesday to see the nurse. And get my next set of jabs too. In both arms again. Gunna take me a while to recover.
But that's ok. I'm a trooper. And will be vaccine-ed against the deadly schtuff!
Did I tell you, I'm a trooper?

Leeloo got a round of immunization shots the day before. She spent the day after in a funk, mostly sleeping, building her immunity. That's the day I got this. The following day, she resumed being a very active lil' kitten. Mostly SOOC -- slight adjustments to levels and color balance -- the sunlight is real. H.Zuiko 42mm 1:1.2

My dad drove me to SFO. We hung out for a while looking at some really beautiful crystals on display. We chit-chatted a bunch and had some heart to heart expressions.

Happy (half-)Birthday Lukas!
Lukas is one roll-over closer to chasing his big sister around the house. He can now roll from front to back ad nauseum and has been found under our Christmas tree and under our chaise lounge after a few minutes of non-supervision. We figure he'll be crawling within a week or two.
Here are a few other milestones/details:
- has sampled the gamut of cereals and is moving on to fruits & veggies (carrots tonight)
- is wearing 12-month-old clothing
- loves clutching and grabbing onto things (including hair, ears and lips)
- puts everything into his mouth
- absolutely loves splashing in the bathtub (we've started putting Makayla and Lukas in the bath together)
- still no teeth
- is still doing reasonably well at sleeping through the night
- has a much better attitude than Makayla when it comes to going potty (Lukas has pooed on the potty) ;' )

Naazma Begum mobilizes mothers and children from their homes to attend a routine immunization session at the local anganwadi in the Chandnmari Juggi. 27-year-old Naazma Begum along with her husband Mohhammed Avrakh reside in a 100 sq.feet plot of land covered by blue and yellow plastic supported by bamboo sticks. In order to survive Naazma picks rags from garbage dumps and construction sites, sometimes travelling around 8 to 10 kilometers a day. Typically her day starts at 4:00 am, and sometimes can extend till late evenings. After picking useful items out of garbage she comes back to her slum colony and sorts out the various pieces of junk collected. Plastic, metals, glass and other items are separated and sold. Children, young and old participate in this activity. The sorted items would then be sold to a “Kabadi Wala” ( Wholesale Junk Shop).
On certain days Naazma does not go for her morning rounds of rag picking. This does affects her household economically. Her husband a magician doing shows for a living does not have a steady stream of income. In spite of the circumstances Naazma on these mornings goes house to house motivating young mothers from her community to take their children for routine immunization sessions organized in her locality by the National Health Mission.
An inspiration to many, Naazma sometimes has tough time convincing her friends to take their children. Excuses ranging from, “We don’t have time’, “the child will get fever “ are common in her community. Naazma patiently explains the dangers caused due to lack of vaccination and its necessity in today’s life to every household. Her effort along with the support of Community Mobilization Coordinator and Block Mobilization Coordinator has led to a massive increase in the children immunized in Vijaynagar Ghaziabad.

Fish in an aquarium at the doctor's office. We were there for our son's pre-college physical and immunizations. A little boy there for his own pre-kindergarten immunizations kept talking about how scary these fish were.
Immunization not only protects children from vaccine-preventable diseases, it also gives us a chance to deliver other life-saving measures, such as vitamin A supplements and checking for signs of malnutrition screenings and other diseases.

Halima Abdi (blue/purple scarf) brought in her baby, Munira Mohamed (7 months old, she is holding her) for a measles vaccine. Also with her is her 1-year-old girl (wearing brown printed dress) who is already up to date on vaccines. She heard about the event through the outreach health workers mobilizers. She has 4 children and cares for them mostly alone while her husband moves around the town selling clothes to support the family. Halima used to clean homes in town for an income, but since the drought many people have stopped having a cleaner come as they are also suffering with less income. They lived in Baidoa but once the drought increased, they moved to Garowe where there are less people.
Nurses are working at the Jawle Health Center mobile vaccine clinic in Garowe, is set up in the Jawle IDP camp Mother and Baby center. The clinic moves to different places around the IDP camps 3 days a week so that they can reach many people. UNICEF works through EPI donors like GAVI to supports partner organizations like World Vision, Save the Children, CRC and the Puntland Ministry of Health. Many pastoralists are coming to the IDP camp here because the drought is killing off their livestock. There has been outbreaks of diseases and so this year there will be 2 rounds of an integrated vaccination campaigns (one was in March the next is in November) to immunize for measles and polio along with vitamin A supplementation and deworming.
In July there was a measles outbreak and more children for suffering but there was an outreach campaign in response to the outbreak and the situation soon stabilized. After the outreach about immunization around 530 children under 5 years old were brought into the clinic for their dose.

The card that tracks the shots and series given rested in her hand, while her child slept undaunted by the cries and shrieks of other child receiving shots nearby. The program that a local NGO (C-NES), UNICEF and India's NRHM started in 2006, has been a huge success, now reaching over 20,000 river-island villagers in the Brahmaputra River.
The 13th Vaccination Week in the Americas (VWA) will be celebrated from April 25th to May 2nd, 2015. The regional slogan for VWA 2015 is “Boost your power! Get vaccinated!” Vaccines are weakened or killed pathogens that help your immune system fight diseases. Vaccines do not make you sick, but prepare your body to fight off disease when exposed to full strength pathogens in the future. Vaccines boost the power of your immune system and fight off more than 20 different vaccine-preventable diseases. To read more on how vaccines boost your power, check out: www.paho.org/vwa/

In Jan 2010 the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations (GAVI) and its partners are rolling out a new vaccine to prevent pneumonia in Kenya. In the developing world, pneumonia kills in the neighborhood of 1.4 million kids every year. Pneumococcal, the deadliest strain of that illness (and a major cause of what we might call "regular" pneumonia), kills 800,000.
Kenya's pneumococcal vaccine's official launch date is Feb 14, but we were able to photograph a clinic near the Kibera slum in Nairobi that already started providing the vaccine this week.
This health center is the Langata (sometimes called Kibera) District's regional distribution center for the 36 clinics within the district. They collect all of the vaccines from the Regional Disbursement Center and, since they must maintain the cold chain to ensure the efficacy and safety of the vaccine, haul them back to Langata in well-used, white Styrofoam coolers. There, they are stored in an upright, avocado green refrigerator. But, it works and that's what counts. They are then divided up and dispersed to the 27 clinics in the District that have trained personnel to give the vaccines.
