Gov’t launches second round of Rubella-Measles vaccine

The Ministry of Health is introducing a second measles-rubella shot for children aged 1 and a half years to the vaccination schedule, in an effort to eliminate the disease. According to the Health Ministry, Uganda has no current outbreak but the pockets of unvaccinated children over the last three years poses a high risk. Health experts from various countries including Kenya, Ethiopia and Uganda are gathered here in Kampala to share experiences on the introduction of the dose. #NTVNews #NTVTonight #NTVWeekendEdition Subscribe to Our Channel For more news visit http://www.ntv.co.ug Follow us on Twitter   / ntvuganda   Connect with us on Messenger via m.me/NTVUganda
