2025年11月在东卡万戈发现二型脊髓灰质炎病毒后,纳米比亚利用新型口服脊髓灰质炎疫苗第2型疫苗,发起了针对10岁以下儿童的全国小儿麻痹症疫苗接种运动。 Namibia has launched a nationwide polio vaccination campaign targeting children under 10, using the novel oral polio vaccine type 2, following the detection of poliovirus type 2 in sewage in Kavango East in November 2025. 虽然没有证实任何病例,但官员们指出,在常规的2类疫苗接种结束后出生的儿童在豁免方面存在差距。 Though no cases have been confirmed, officials cite an immunity gap among children born after routine type 2 vaccination ended. 这项运动由卫生部领导,并得到卫生组织和儿童基金会的支持,包括1月和2月的两轮,包括挨家挨户访问和在学校、市场和偏远地区的外联。 The campaign, led by the Ministry of Health and supported by WHO and UNICEF, includes two rounds in January and February, with door-to-door visits and outreach in schools, markets, and remote areas. 所有10岁以下的儿童,不论是否接种过疫苗,都将获得两剂疫苗,以加强社区免疫,防止可能爆发疫情。 All children under 10, regardless of prior vaccination, are to receive two doses to strengthen community immunity and prevent potential outbreaks.
