No fewer than 2,248 new cases of measles have been discovered in Benue State in the past eight months. Also, a new variant of polio has been discovered in the state.
These were disclosed by the State’s Health Educator at the Primary Health Care Board, (PHCB), Mr. Emmanuel Beeka.
According to Vanguard, Breaka made these known in Makurdi.
He explained that the state had already keyed into the national vaccination intervention that kick off on October 6 for Polio, which would be rounded off next Tuesday while the flag-off for Measles vaccination would be done on the October 19, 2022 with full implementation commencing from 20th and would run till 28th.
The Health Educator stated that the scope of the exercise had been expanded stressing that children of nine months to 59 months would be vaccinated for measles while for Oral Polio, those from zero to 49 months would get vaccinated.
While appealing to members of the public to take advantage of the vaccination opportunities he said: “In the last two to three months there was an outbreak of measles in about 18 Local Government Areas, of the state where measles was identified and it is for that reason that there is every need to massively vaccinate the targeted age groups to check the spread.
“Apart from measles and Polio, COVID-19 vaccine will also be given to the people who are within the age group so that they will be adequately vaccinated against COVID-19.
“This is just as birth registration too will be carried out simultaneously during the mass vaccination campaign at vaccination points so that all children who have not been registered can do so to enable them have their birth certificates.”
He noted that Polio had earlier been eliminated but a new variant was identified in some LGAs “and incidentally, we are also carrying out an outbreak response for Polio. That is the Polio variant. It should not surprised you because we had said we had eliminated Polio; but another variant is discovered.
“It is similarly very dangerous and in order to try as much as possible to totally eradicate it, the vaccination activities are going on because the variant has been identified in some LGAs and to avoid some elements of doubt, total vaccination activities are going to the targeted at children of 0-5 years and 9-59 months.
“So, the outbreak response is to try as much as possible to do away with that variant that has been discovered. In addition to that, the measles mass vaccination activities which we intend to carry out as well is for the same purpose.”
