Joining hands - literally! - with national, provincial & local partners in Khanh Vinh district, Khánh Hòa province 🇻🇳 to mark #WorldMalariaDay. #Vietnam is tantalisingly close to elimination: last year just 441 cases were reported, & 46 provinces are now officially malaria free.
Vaccines developed in the 1950s and 1960s paved the way for global campaigns that have resulted in a 99.9% drop in cases of wild poliovirus worldwide. The Western Pacific was certified #polio-free in 2000. Eradicating polio is #HumanlyPossible!
International & national #HealthSecurity experts come together this week to conduct the 1st Joint External Evaluation (JEE) in #Tonga 🇹🇴. The JEE is a comprehensive assessment that helps boost country capacity to prevent, detect & respond to public health threats & emergencies.
Keep this checklist handy and claim your right to health. Share it with friends, families, colleagues and community members. Remember health isn’t a privilege but a fundamental human right. #MyHealthMyRight
During the pandemic, COVID-19 vaccines were rapidly & safely rolled out, achieving high coverage in many countries/areas in the Region. Photographer Neil Nuia took 637 photos on a journey to deliver #COVID19 vaccinations to villages in #SolomonIslands. 👉 bit.ly/3Or0EoG
Yes, #VaccinesWork! They have enabled dramatic reductions in illness, disability and death from common childhood diseases. #WorldImmunizationWeek ➡️ bit.ly/4d0Xl2T
FACT: Comprehensive sexuality education is associated with later sexual activity & reduced risk-taking. Evidence shows that young people are more likely to delay having sex – & if they do have sex, practice safer sex - when they are better informed about sexual health & rights.
“We were all surprised when #measles became widespread here. Three of my children became sick…I told myself, ‘If I could only turn back time.’ I was full of regrets at that time. If only I’d had them vaccinated, then they wouldn't have been infected.” May, #Philippines 🇵🇭
As of 2022, 8 countries and areas in the Western Pacific have achieved #measles elimination, 7 have achieved rubella elimination. WHO continues to work with countries to ensure immunization programmes can deliver 2 doses of the measles vaccine to every person who needs it.
In the news today 👇🏻 Thanks @VietnamNewsVNS for covering our statement on #WorldImmunisationWeek. #Vaccineswork @Rana4UNICEF @UNICEF_vietnam @WHOVietnam
In the Western Pacific, 26 countries/areas have successfully reduced chronic hepatitis B infection. Since the hepatitis B vaccine was introduced in 1986, infections have ↘️ to less than 1% of children. Speak up & tell leaders it’s time for immunization for all. #HumanlyPossible
