Contaminated vaccine caused death to fifteenth children in Nachodokopele Village of Kapoeta East County.
Ministry of Health, World Health Organization and UNICEF express their deep sadness for the children death.
Evidence after investigations indicates that vaccination team did not adhere to the WHO- approved immunization safety standards.
A single reconstitution syringe was used many times for the entire four days of the campaign instead of being discarded after single use.
The report shows that about 300 people were vaccinated against measles in the area; thirty-two children suffered symptoms of fever, vomiting and diarrhea but recovered.
The ministry of health has formed a committee to review the Adverse Events Following Immunization report and give appropriate recommendations to improve immunization service.
