THE Minister of Health and Medical Services (MHMS), Dr. Paul Popora Bosawai, has extended the government’s appreciation to various stakeholders supporting the rollout of immunization programs across the Solomon Islands.

“On behalf of the Government of National Unity and Transformation (GNUT) and the people of the Solomon Islands, I would like to acknowledge and thank all our technical and development partners who have supported—and continue to support—our national immunization program and provincial health services,” Mr Bosawai said.

Speaking during World Immunization Week last week, Bosawai expressed gratitude to the World Health Organization (WHO) office in the Solomon Islands, UNICEF, World Vision, and other non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for their continued support.

“Thank you very much to all our partners. Despite challenges in human resource capacity, infrastructure, and finances, and the difficult geography of our islands, you continue to make it possible for mothers and children across the Solomon Islands to access safe and free vaccines,” he added.
