“Every year, approximately 127 000 children aged less than five years die of the disease in the SEA Region, around 98 000 of whom are in India.  The vaccines without any iota of doubt are proven to be safe and very effective. Introduction of such vaccines  have resulted in dramatic decline in rates of diarrhea-related hospitalization and death of children. They are also shown to be cost-effective,” Dr Naik added.

DAK said that since 2009 WHO has strongly recommended all countries to introduce rotavirus vaccines into their routine immunization programs as part of a comprehensive strategy to control diarrheal diseases and deaths.
“We urge governor led administration to introduce Hepatitis A, Typhoid and MMRV vaccines in to state immunization program as these infections are endemic in state of Jammu and Kashmir,” they said.
