This situation has focused attention on the lack of information among the population on health activities as immunization campaigns. This situation has allowed a rapid spread of misinformation and other defiance towards vaccination. The emergence of this form of threat can lead to negative health practices and can even result in death.

Many actions are implemented by the Government, WHO and other partners. A communication system has been put in place to ensure that all segments of the population receive the right information.
