DOH to retrain personnel for measles vaccination

To ensure that the Department of Health’s (DOH) measles vaccination program would proceed smoothly next month, health personnel who would be conducting the activity would be undergoing re-training, an official said on Thursday.

“Measles vaccination is a regular activity and vaccinators are already trained. But to ensure that everything is done properly there will be re-orientation and training of regional and city and municipal health workers are being done,” DOH Undersecretary Enrique Domingo said, referring to the department’s Oplan Ligtas Tigdas vaccination program.
