CILACAP – Providing Sub PIN Polio immunization for children aged 0 to 7 years in Cilacap Regency is entering its second stage. In this second stage, Maos District is targeting 4596 children to receive immunization.
The second phase of Sub PIN Polio immunization in Maos District was carried out at the Karangreja Village Hall, Maos District, Monday (19/2/2024). On the first day, immunization was carried out in three villages, including Karang Kemiri Village, Panisihan Village and Karangreja Village with a target of 1254 children on the first day.
“Thank God, on the first day of the target of 1254 children, 1227 children were achieved. “Karang Kemiri Village has 450 children, Panisihan Village has 642 children and Karangreja Village has 135 children,” said Head of Maos Subdistrict, Trias Handayani when met after the event.
Trias said that for children who cannot be immunized according to schedule, Maos District officers will pick up and drop off at homes to provide immunizations. Apart from that, for children who may currently be sick, we provide a deadline for getting immunizations.
“Those who can’t fit into the schedule, we’ll take the ball to the houses. We also involve the Babinsa Babinkamtibmas to assist. “Those who haven’t been able to do so may be due to illness, later there will be a deadline like the first stage yesterday,” he said.
Trias admitted that he was grateful for the enthusiasm of children and mothers for the Sub PIN Polio immunization so that Maos District succeeded in achieving more than 100% of the immunization target in the first phase last month.
“Thank God, mothers’ awareness is very high. Maybe one of the reasons is because this medicine is a drop, not an injection, it also tastes sweet, so children are not afraid. Then, because the target is children aged 0 to 7 years and over 11 months 29 days, there are many children whose age is still coming in to get immunization during the first stage. “So we succeeded in achieving more than 100%,” he said.
The second phase of Sub PIN Polio immunization will be implemented starting February 19 2024 throughout the Cilacap Regency area. Children aged 0 to 7 years and over 11 months 29 days can get immunizations at posyandu, schools and other health service locations. (my/aji/kominfo)
