Completion of nationwide yellow fever PMVCs in Ghana
From 12th to 18th November, Ghana implemented the final phase of its nationwide PMVCs and protected over 5.4 million people aged 10 to 60 years, from yellow fever (YF). This is a major milestone for the EYE strategy and Ghana, as it represents attainment of nationwide protection from YF. Exceptional support was received from the US CDC Foundation for the printing of 6.2 million vaccination cards and provision of 87,841 bottles of hand sanitizers (250ml each) covering the entire campaign.
