WHO Recommended Vaccine to be Administered to Five – Month old Babies – FG

News

The Federal Government has said that the first malaria vaccine recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), will be administered in four doses to 5-month-old babies.

The WHO added that the vaccine will be effective against the deadliest parasite, especially common in Africa, but clarified that the new vaccine it is not for adults.

The Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire, who revealed this on Tuesday in Abuja at the Ministerial bi-weekly meeting on the development in the country’s health sector, added that vaccines for malaria were still under review with the first one known to have reduced the risk of malaria by 40 per cent in children in Africa as of 2020.
