Qatar to launch Tdap vaccination drive
- Qatar: Thursday, February 21 - 2013 at 03:21
Qatar is set to launch a vaccination campaign aiming to have around 10,000 students vaccinated against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis (Tdap), the Peninsula has reported. The 14-day drive by the Supreme Council of Health (SCH) is set to kick off on March 3. The students' parents are required to sign a consent form to allow the vaccination to be given, the SCH said. "We try to have all the parents agree, because there is no harm if the student is healthy and taking no medication. Contra-indications might come only if the kid has immunodeficiency problems or allergic reaction," an SCH official said.
