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.”/.
