The Two-Week Vaccination Campaign

Last August, Raudatul Jannah called Ratna Ellyani's cellular phone to ask about the progress made in Tapin Regency's measles vaccination program, which at the time had only reached 45 percent of the program's target. "The figure was the lowest in all of South Kalimantan," said Ratna, wife of Tapin Regent Arifin Arpan, two weeks ago.

Raudatul, wife of South Kalimantan Governor Sahbirin Noor, asked the regent's wife to improve the sitation. Her objective was to achieve a 95-percent vaccination target within the following two weeks. Ratna, who is also chairperson of the Team of Motivators for Tapin's Family Welfare Improvement Group (PKK), immediately called Errani Martin, the regency's health services chief, to request a mapping of the vaccination program.
