Initial phase completed!

Jon Lascher, PIH – Artibonite Region, Haiti

We've completed the planned vaccination -- doses 1 and 2 -- for the current phase of the project.

We are very pleased with the results thus far, but we know there are still people we can reach.

We proposed to the teams today that we continue vaccinating for 1-2 days of “attrapage” or continued case finding. We are sensitive to the long hours the teams have already been working and we want to ensure that they have enough rest for the next leg -- dosing children 9 and under -- but given the option this evening, they said they wanted to continue working.
