The National Primary Health Care Development Agency has advised Nigerians to take children aged zero to 23 months to vaccinate their child against polio, yellow fever measles and other deadly diseases. This is as the agency intimated to the public of plans to integrate the Covid-19 mass vaccination campaign with childhood immunisation.
Executive Director of the agency, Faisal Shuaib, disclosed this on Tuesday during a parley with journalists in Abuja. Shuaib decried the suspension of childhood immunisation, which his agency blamed the coronavirus pandemic for the outbreak of the circulating vaccine-derived polio.
