Dr. Coker, in a statement made available by the Press Officer Ogun State Primary Health Care Development Board (OGSPHCDB), Mrs. Yemisi Fashola, stated that Rotavirus is a contagious infection that causes diarrhea disease in infants and young children, adding that it leads to severe watery stool, vomiting, fever, and abdominal pain, as well as sudden death if and when it is not promptly attended to.

The Commissioner said the virus was responsible for about 215,000 deaths globally and approximately 50,000 deaths annually among children under five years in Nigeria, affirming that ‘’ the vaccination would serve as a preventive measure against the harmful diseases’’.

She reiterated that the State government would continue to partner with the Federal Government in the provision of vaccines at no cost, advising parents and caregivers to always visit health facilities for routine immunisation.

In his welcome address, the Chairman, Sagamu Local Government, Hon. Jubril Afolabi Odulate, represented by the Head of Local Government Administration, Pastor Phillips Ogunpitan commended Prince Dapo Abiodun-led administration on qualitative healthcare delivery for the overall well-being of the citizenry.

In their separate contributions, the State Coordinator, National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA), Dr. Victoria Adebiyi, and her counterpart in the United Nations Children Emergency Fund (UNICEF), Mrs. Florence Molokwu and the Acting State Coordinator, of World Health Organisation(WHO), Pharm. Folake Ogunlaja said introduction of the vaccine was another giant stride at improving the health and wellness of children in the State, assuring that it was safe, effective, and potent at protecting children against the disease.
