School Based

Immunization
Campaign

August 2016

I. INTRODUCTION
Vaccination has been proven to be
the most effective public health
intervention
Vaccination protects not only the
individual but also protects other
members of the family and the
community.

Why School Based

Immunization?
Protection produced by
some of these
vaccines will decline over time
Booster doses may be needed to ensure that
high levels of protection are maintained
New
vaccines
such
as
the
human
papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine are more effective
if delivered at a specific age.
