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.

Eugene had his two-month old check-up today. This also entailed one oral vaccine (he liked that one!) and three shots.
The shots didn't go so well. He cried in pain, anger and hurt. He was playing so happily in the doctor's office right before the shots. He loves looking at paintings and wallpaper.
The way he looked at me through his tears after the shots---it broke my heart. I felt like such a heel.

Two York Region Public Health COVID-19 vaccination clinics opened during the first week of March to support the three hospitals-led clinics in the City of Richmond Hill and the Town of Georgina. Pictured here is the Richmond Green Sports Centre in the City of Richmond Hill.
As the Provincial vaccination campaign picked up speed later in the spring, the Region opened more mass vaccination clinics to better serve residents across all nine local municipalities. Following a successful vaccination campaign throughout the spring and into the summer, York Region announced the closure of its mass vaccination clinics for the end of August 2021. However, two COVID-19 vaccination community clinics will operate until the end of 2021 at the York Region Administrative Centre Great Hall and Maple Community Centre.

Rabies vaccination in dogs and cats is of paramount importance. In usa has been infected with rabies and in recent years dozens of cases of rabies-infested animals have been discovered that have not been immunized by a emergency vet as required by law, infecting all mammals including humans and caused by RNA virus. Transmission of the disease is mainly caused by biting, but the clinical signs are not specific but can cause neurological spasms and signs, rabies is incurable and in the case of clinical signs, the disease can not be treated.
Emergency vet think that The cause of rabies is viral and belongs to a family of RNA viruses and is one of the first diseases to be developed against the vaccine in 1885. The disease affects all mammals and it is now known that every few minutes a person dies in the world of rabies, especially in developing countries. The spread of the virus is global and can be transmitted by any individual belonging to the mammals (eg, dogs, cats, foxes, cows, etc.).
How do you get the disease? How does the disease progress?
1.The virus is secreted in the infected animal's saliva. The transmission is carried out by an animal bite whose saliva contains the virus or by contact with the saliva with exposed wounds. The virus migrates in the nervous system toward the spinal cord, where it proliferate quickly and rises toward the brain. When it reaches the brain, clinical signs begin to appear and the virus is secreted in the animal's saliva, sometimes the secretion of saliva occurs before the onset of clinical signs (sometimes even two weeks before).
2. The time from the bite to the onset of the signs can last from one day to the next, depending on the distance of the bitten area and the amount of virus injected (bite more than licking).
What are the clinical signs of rabies infection?
The disease can affect any mammal of any age. The clinical signs are not very specific and can be
Primary signs - restlessness, lack of eating, personality changes and vomiting and vomiting
In more advanced stages - depression, extreme restlessness, demancy, aggression, change of voice, fearless attack, difficulties in swallowing and eating, eating feces and non-food items.
In humans, the main clinical signs are fear of water (hydrophobia). Patients with the disease can not drink even a glass of water and are affected by paralyzing fear as a result of contact with water.
What is the reccommand treatment of the rabid animal by emergency vet?
Emergency vet do not treat an animal suspected of rabies and we send it to quarantine for about 10 days to see if the animal develops clinical signs that are suspicious of the disease.
A person bitten by a suspected rabid animal must go to the Ministry of Health and receive a passive vaccination against rabies as soon as possible. As soon as clinical signs appear, the disease is incurable.

Village Ð Jamarasuan, Block-Chandanpur CHS, Dist-Puri, Odisha, INDIA..Pushpa Bhoi, four months child, being immunized after Purnachandra Sabata, 44, an autorickshaw driver, delivered cold chain boxes of vaccines to Anganwadi centre. Every Wednesday, Purnachandra Saba, delivers boxes of vaccines to anganwadi centres.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. .

Until now there have been few or no health providers that can provide high quality care during pregnancy, delivery, and in the days and weeks after birth in these remote Maternal and Child Health Centers. Having a trained Community Midwife present in every village in Somaliland is part of Edna Adan's vision to reduce maternal and newborn mortality across the country.
The Direct Relief Midwife Kit, one of 40 donated to Edna Adan Hospital to be distributed to the Community Midwives that are practicing in similar areas throughout Somaliland, contains essential delivery instruments, basic diagnostic equipment and medical supplies to help a midwives put their training to use.

Inoculator Asha Bargava (L) administers vaccine to four month old Arsia Bano as her mother Saida Bano hold her at a vaccination session in Guna, Madhya Pradesh. Despite being rich in natural resources like diamonds, Madhya Pradesh is more infamous for its poverty. It is home to around 50 million people who defecate in the open air without latrines (around 70% of its 72 million people). These people consequently do not have adequate hygiene, without soap and enough water to wash their hands after defecating. About 5% of the global total of open defecators can be found in this one Indian state alone. Madhya Pradesh is also home to some of the most undernourished children in India with 50% of under threeÕs suffering from stunting (chronic malnutrition), an indicator of long-term persistent nutrition deprivation that lead to poor physical growth and brain development in children with tragic implications for child survival, growth and development.
