REDUCING INFANT MORTALITY

GAVI Alliance is a non-governmental organisation that operates in the country mostly in the rural areas. Its main duty is to reduce infant mortality rate through immunisation of the newborns and children under five years who are vulnerable to communicable diseases. Last month they carried out a free immunisation programme against polio, pneumonia and tuberculosis that saw three thousand infants immunised in the process.
