After that, we wrote invitations and worked with the community-based COVID-19 team to send them out, and then raised awareness of the importance of COVID-19 vaccination to children among each household and parent.”

They have come to every household with children to talk to them on the importance of COVID-19 vaccination. Bui Thi Dung, a member of Ha Village’s community-based COVID-19 team, shared: "We went to every house to talk to people so they can have a better understanding of their rights and responsibilities in protecting the well-being of the children, thus supporting the vaccination.”
