Health Minister Khumbize Kandodo Chiponda visited Lilongwe medical centers on Tuesday to check vaccination work. She found problems with some health workers who steal medicine from patients. Other workers arrive late and start their jobs after scheduled times. The minister told staff at Nathenje and Biwi Health Centres to stop these bad actions right away. She wants all medical workers to do their jobs properly and help sick people.

The minister said the measles vaccination program started well at both centers she visited. Workers gave shots to many children during the first days of the campaign. Chiponda believes the vaccination teams will reach their target numbers for immunizing kids. She feels confident about stopping the measles outbreak that hurts children across Malawi. The vaccination work must continue without stealing or lazy behavior from medical staff.

Health officials started emergency measles shots on Monday for children between 9 months and 9 years old. Six districts have serious measles problems that make many children sick. The vaccination program targets young kids who catch measles and rubella diseases easily. Medical teams want to protect children and stop these sicknesses from spreading to more areas. The emergency campaign will help families keep their children healthy and safe.
