The measles vaccination campaign in the city is aimed at ensuring that over 95% of children aged 1-5 years old living in Hanoi who have not received enough doses of measles-containing vaccine as prescribed are given one dose of measles-rubella (MR) vaccine.
According to the plan, the subjects vaccinated in this campaign are children aged 1-5 years old living in Hanoi and medical staff at risk at medical examination and treatment facilities treating measles patients in the city who have not been fully vaccinated with measles-containing vaccines as prescribed.
Except for subjects who have been vaccinated with measles or MR vaccine or measles and/or rubella vaccine within 1 month before vaccination; subjects who have been fully vaccinated with measles vaccine according to regulations.
The measles vaccination campaign will be implemented in the third and fourth quarters of 2024 (deployed soon after the vaccine is supplied by the Ministry of Health ) in 579 communes, wards and towns of 30 districts, towns and cities across the city.
Vaccination locations are at Health Stations; preschools, kindergartens, and other mobile vaccination sites depending on the actual situation in the locality.
The City People's Committee requested the Hanoi Department of Health to coordinate with the Department of Education and Training in organizing screening of subjects and vaccination at preschools and kindergartens.
In addition, the People's Committees of districts, towns and cities develop plans to implement measles vaccination campaigns in their areas. In addition, the People's Committees of districts, towns and cities direct communes, wards and towns to conduct investigations and review of subjects and vaccination history; direct schools to coordinate with the health sector to effectively carry out investigations and arrange human resources to participate in vaccination.
