MORE VACCINATIONS AT TDP

One of the main key points at The Dhaka Project is the health concern with the kids, and to avoid deadly diseases among the children we need to be sure they are secured against the main threats, through vaccinations.


One of these vaccinations took place on the 27^th March 2008.


On this day we vaccinated:

• 430 students from the old school for hepatitis-B, booster dose. The other 3 doses have been given last years.

• 230 students for hepatitis-B, 1^st dose. These are students from the new school (EAFS) There are 3 more doses to be given; 2^nd dose on 27^th April, 3^rd dose on 27th May and last dose in 2009.
