Haitian children vaccinated against cholera

We will soon be finishing up the vaccine campaign with the final dose for children 9 and under. So far, even with delays and the rainy season well upon us, we've reached more than 40,000 people... that's pretty good!
Maybe someday soon we will be here together scaling up the cholera vaccination to the national level with the Haiti Ministry of Health.

Tomorrow teams will be going door-to-door again.
