With the pandemic has been kept at bay, vaccinated people seemed to lower guard against the virus and be reluctant to receive booster doses. As a result, the number of adults getting the third and fourth doses and vaccinated children aged 5 – 12 remained relatively low.

various ideas in an effort to increase the coverage of booster doses. One of
them is the medical station of Phu Lai commune which has sent invitations for
COVID-19 vaccination to residents.
Dinh Thi Tinh, head of the commune’s medical
station, said: "We have coordinated with schools to make a list of
children eligible for vaccination. After that, we wrote invitations and worked
with the community-based COVID-19 team to send them out, and then raised
awareness of the importance of COVID-19 vaccination to children among each
household and parent.”
They have come to every household with children
to talk to them on the importance of COVID-19 vaccination. Bui Thi Dung, a
member of Ha Village’s community-based COVID-19 team, shared: "We went to
every house to talk to people so they can have a better understanding of their
rights and responsibilities in protecting the well-being of the children, thus
supporting the vaccination.”
In the coming time, local authorities will
maintain this method and continue convincing unvaccinated people so as to reach
the vaccination goal.”/.
