Published on December 2, 2019, a report highlighted concerns that the polio vaccination campaign in Kenya might fail to reach its target.

The campaign, aimed at eradicating polio, has been facing numerous challenges, including logistical issues and low community engagement.

According to sources, the vaccination drive has been hindered by inadequate resources, lack of awareness, and resistance from some communities.

As a result, the campaign's goal of vaccinating a significant portion of the population may not be achieved, putting the country's efforts to eradicate polio at risk.
