Immunizations at BKU

On May 12th, BKU held an immunization clinic for the children. Victoria arranged for Dr. Joyce Abalo and nurse Lydia Lunkuse, from Kitala Health Centre II, to spend the day at Bright Kids to administer government vaccinations and medicine to the kids of BKU. The children were also weighed and their medical records were updated. The children received polio, measles, and diphtheria/tetanus/hepetitis B vaccinations. They also received Vitamin A and de-worming medicine. The community was also invited to bring children for immunization. At the end of the day, 60 children benefited from the immunization clinic. Despite some tears and frightened faces, the immunization clinic was a success.
