Mrs Elizabeth Onitolo, UNICEF Communication for Development
(C4D) Specialists, made the call in Yola on Wednesday at a three-day media
dialogue on Immunisation, Post-polio Certification and COVID-19 Vaccination.
The programme was organised by the Federal Ministry of
Information and Culture in collaboration with UNICEF.
Onitolo urged those who were vaccinated to also observe the
protocols to safeguard other people from the virus.
She said that there was the need for people to get
vaccinated and continue to abide by the protocols to curtail the spread of the
virus.
Also, Lilian Okeke, Team Lead, African Field Epidemiology
Network (AFENET) in Adamawa, said the vaccine was provided to save lives and
not to harm anyone.
“Our concern is to save lives, you need to take those
preventive measures to save your life and others,“ Okeke said.
She advised pregnant women to consult their doctors for
medical advice before receiving such vaccine.
