11. Vaccination – A shield
Background
Vaccination is done to protect ourselves from many diseases, such as diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, cholera, hepatitis, polio, etc. Today the vaccination drive against polio is very intense. There is an international campaign to eradicate polio from the world just as was the case with small pox. India is one of the few countries where polio is still prevalent due to lack of awareness, sheer negligence and biases. It is important that we spread awareness about the importance of vaccination.
Methodology
1. Find out the diseases against which vaccination is possible.
2. Interview at least twenty families in your neighbourhood, including domestic helps and people engaged in small trades and services like selling vegetables and food items, tailors, hairdressers to find out:
(a) Whether they are aware of the importance of various types of vaccinations.
(b) From where they can have it done free of cost.
(c) Whether their children are vaccinated. If so, against which diseases.
(d) If their children are not vaccinated, why.
Conclusion
Prepare a report indicating the percentage of people who have not got their children vaccinated.
Follow-up
Spread awareness about the importance of vaccination in your locality. Encourage people to make sure that their children are vaccinated at the appropriate time with proper follow-up wherever necessary.
