No stagnation in vaccination program

Staff Reporter:

Special Assistant to the Chief Adviser for the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare Professor Dr Md Sayedur Rahman yesterday said that there is no stagnation in the vaccination program.
“Despite some problems in supply, the government is procuring vaccines with advance money and there has been no disruption in the program,” he said at a discussion organized by UNICEF and the Shastho Shurokkha Foundation at CIRDAP auditorium in the capital.
At that time, he said, the vaccination rate was 80 percent in 1980, and it is still the same.
It has neither increased nor decreased, he said, adding: “At this moment, the government has purchased the Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) vaccines on an emergency basis.”
Sayedur Rahman said UNICEF buys vaccines for Bangladesh from the world market.
They have to pay them in advance, he said, adding: “We have arranged advance money from the government’s own funds. UNICEF will be paid before the next budget. There will be no disruption in this program.”
