The UAE will participate in celebrating the annual World Immunisation Week launched by the World Health Organisation, WHO, in the last week of April.
The World Immunisation Week is annually observed to help vaccinate approximately 20 million children around the world, who are totally or partially deprived of vaccinations.
However, this year, the world is facing a significant challenge that requires finding a vaccine for all humanity.
UAE is implementing a free National Immunisation Programme for citizens and residents, which aims to benefit all individuals in the community.
The UAE is one of the key supporters of the global efforts aimed at combating diseases, such as Guinea worm, polio and malaria, and preventing their spread.
