The Expanded Program on immunization within the Ministry of Health Wellness and the Environment is celebrating the 17th vaccination week of the Americas.
Vaccination week of the Americas is an event held annually by more than 40 countries and territories in the Americas to raise awareness on the importance of immunization.
In this regard the Ministry conducted a week of activities from April 20th to the 25th including Open Days at Clinics and Health Centres and a Primary Schools Spelling-B in Bequia with the objective of promoting equity and access to immunization and promoting the transition from child to family immunization.
Today the activities will conclude with a health fair at heritage square under the theme: “Protect your Community Do Your Part Get Vaccinated.”
