  1. People r confused who to vaccinate ,whether all children or only unvaccinated. Message to people should b more clear one.

    • In vaccination campaign, all children are to be vaccinated regardless of their previous vaccination status. In current campaign in Punjab, all children aged 9 months to 10 years are to be vaccinated, as mentioned earlier, regardless of their previous vaccination status.
