Vaccines protect children from life-threatening diseases, saving millions of lives each year.
For routine vaccines to be effective, children need to complete the required doses according to schedule from the time they are born until they are one year old. They also need to complete additional doses during supplementary or catch-up vaccination campaigns announced by the Department of Health.

Routine immunization coverage among children must be at least 95%. Routine vaccines are provided by the Government for free in public health centers and facilities.
