IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR THE DOOR TO DOOR MASS VACCINATION CAMPAIGN
In response to the current measles outbreak, the Government of Samoa will be undertaking a ‘Door to door Mass Vaccination Campaign’ on Thursday 5th and Friday 6th December, 2019 from 7am to 5pm throughout the whole country.
All public and private sectors will be closed on the above mentioned dates from 7am to 5pm to ensure a good coverage of the vaccination plan.
...The public is hereby advised to tie a red cloth or red flag in front of their houses and near the road to indicate that family members have not been vaccinated. The red mark makes it easier for the teams to identify households for vaccinations.
Appreciate the community’s assistance in spreading the message to every household to ensure that the Campaign is a success.
Thank you,
