The first National Immunization Days (NIDs) of 2008 in India have been completed in all areas. Special focus was placed on supporting the activity in the defined high risk blocks of Bihar. For the first time, senior state and district officials traveled to access-compromised areas to support the campaigns there. High quality social mobilization activities are vital to the success of these immunization activities.
Project requests for funding are submitted in Indian Rupee (INR). Due to fluctuating exchange rates, there is a revised budget. In addition, UNICEF & the Government of India have recently sponsored the polio eradication messages of the celebrities in the electronic and print media. The request for media has been deleted from the project budget.
