Building up vaccine cold chain in Afghanistan – Testimonial
300 solar vaccine refrigerators – manufactured by B Medical Systems – equip health facilities across the country
Despite progress in past years, Afghanistan is recording a low vaccination coverage with measles outbreaks regularly striking the local population. An EPI coverage survey estimated fully immunized coverage by the age of 1 to hover at 36.3%, while 18.3% of children were found to have never received any vaccine dose. To overcome this challenge and ensure children a healthy life, the government is enhancing the quality of the national cold chain. 300 solar vaccine refrigerators – manufactured by B Medical Systems – equip health facilities across the country.
