📅 April 21–30, 2025
📍 Barangays of Cotabato City
🩺 Theme: “Immunization for All, Humanly Possible”

In observance of World Immunization Week, a series of community-based advocacy activities were held in various barangays in Cotabato City to promote the value of vaccines in preventing disease and protecting lives.

Led by Dr. Isolde Mayo and Dr. Bainary Macalawan, along with dedicated consultants, residents, and medical interns, the team conducted health education sessions aimed at increasing awareness, correcting misinformation, and encouraging vaccine acceptance among parents and caregivers.

This advocacy effort reinforced one clear message:
✅ Immunization is a shared responsibility

✅ And it’s humanly possible for all

Together, let’s continue to build healthier communities—one vaccine at a time.
👏 Thank you to all who participated and supported this life-saving mission!
