Every kids deserve a polio vaccine.. bur I guess the parents needs to be aware first... It's the job of the teachers to call each parents and inform them prior the vaccination day

Children that mostly can't talk, how would you know those that have been given already without seeking from their parents?

Please let us be logical in this situation.


The health worker is trying to prevent an outbreak of polio which if it happens will cause so much problems than we already have in this country.

I think the school should be closed down.

In this Nigeria of today, cautions need to be taking. This is the same country that fake Covid vaccine is being given. I totally agree that parents should be consulted before vaccines are given to their kids.

The Ministry of Health will not see hear these excuses.


How many health workers are nice in Nigeria?

You said you are not sure if she is one. Did you ask her for identity and she couldn't provide or is your school new to this vaccination process?



Which nonesense excuses are u referring?
Is it the ministry of health the owner of the children? If a parent refuses vaccination for his or her child, is the ministry of health going to arrest the parent?

Some of those children are already vaccinated. Thats why parental consent should be given.
Imagine taking compulsory vaccination in Hospital, forced vaccination in School, social vaccination in place of worship and capping it with random vaccination on the street!
Haba the immune system might at some point get overwhelmed!
That is why Northerners believe vaccination is a subtle attempt to reduce their population

Why not come out and say that that's what you believe too?

And yes, it's perfectly valid to be aggressive in the approach to vaccinate against polio. It's a terrible, terrible disease that's been eradicated most places globally. Only in some ignorant enclaves that it remains, and it's been a source of embarrassment for Nigeria when we have a new outbreak.

Any parent that refuses their child to get vaccinated against Polio should be arrested.

Since the 1980s some of you have been alleging a plot to reduce the population of the North. And yet, birth rate there keeps spiraling.

The health center should have sent a notice first before sending a health worker over.
The school security shouldn’t have giving her entry because she has no appointment with the school.

They absolutely should. Treat it the same way as a parent refusing to feed their child. At some point, society needs to step in.

I agree with this. Courtesy demands that parents are informed and they are aware before their child is injected with anything.

I disagree with you. We understand the good will but the approach is wrong. She can't under the auspices of government act unprofessional. Am sure she is not a parent else she would understand where the lady is coming from.

Op, you did the right thing. Let the health worker go and bring the minister of health and the entire presidency .

No one has the right to close down your sch for this reason. Courtesy demand they give a 3day notice before arrival

When health workers come to a school, will they not allow the school to contact the parents before they vaccinate their children?
Some health workers came to my school and started disturbing the peace of the school because we told her we will contact the parents and seek their consent before they can vaccinate the children, she started shouting they will close down the school, this that, torn the visitors book, we have to tell her to go. We contacted our parents some refused most said we go ahead then told the local health center to come and vaccinate the children tommorow.

I want to know do they have right to force vaccine on children without parents consent?

You must be a northerner or NYSC in the north. Mr man or Ms lady, let's kick polio out of Nigeria. I used to abuse and insult the northerners cos they dont usually take the vaccine cos of lies they were told. Lol. And then, their children start leaping on one leg as they grow older...lol. I wasn't surprised when different narratives about covid19 vaccine came out. Actually God used covid 19 to correct me, and not to look down on those poor northerners. If grown up literate people all over the world can spread different lies....666 in vaccine...hell in vaccine...electronic chip in vaccines ..lucifer in vaccines...bla bla bla...then, those people are not stu.pid after all. Humans can be easily manipulated. This is the lesson I have learned. Politicians and business men manipulate people everytime.

Kick Polio out of Nigeria. Let the health personnels do their jobs. Let them give the kids polio vaccination. It is for their good. Most parents have been brainwashed....and its stup.id...though, I dont blame them again. But this is polio and not Covid-19..let the children be saved. It is non of your business. Your business is to make sure they are really from the health department... that's all you need to know. And to know they are really sent. If possible, take their pictures and take videos of the personnels administering the vaccines. That's your business. Ok?

That’s how it’s done in my kids school.
And for the lady to tear a page where she documented her information speaks a lot. She is not genuine.
No health worker will go for vaccination without pre-information.

Mrshape:

Did we reject the vaccine? No.
We only told her to eñable us contact how parents first.
Meanwhile some parents said they shouldn't vaccinate their children in school, the will take the children to the health center to do that.
Besides her behavior was suspicious, health workers are not rude people they are supposed to be trained
Your reaction is in order, health officers don't barge into schools like that, they give notice days before and the proprietor of the school must give consent. Same thing happened in my children's school, parents were called and told that health workers are coming on a particular day to do immunization if we consent to our children recieving the vaccine, in my own case I bluntly refused cause my children have already been given that shot. The so called health worker that came to your school throw ing thantrom might have ulterior motive.

what if the child had taken the vaccine already without the school's knowledge.

The health workers believe that, since you are not required to pay any amount, it is free so to say, you don't have any right to reject it. Parents consent must be worked upon, Incase of eventualities. If you allow them have their way on the pupils and they start acting up, hope you know the school will be held responsible not the health workers! Be guided.

Coming from underage nairalander. In sane society, parents must be consulted before anything and it's not compulsory. We are talking about preschooler's and kids below12yrs old here. Nobody, even teachers have right to give dem water or anything without the parents permission.

I wonder why some people want to put the rest of humanity at risk for stupid reasons - religious or conspiracy theory. Vaccines had help humanity eliminate some deadly diseases like Small pox, chicken pox, yellow fever. If not for a very few backwards countries like Nigeria polio would have been eradicated from the surface of the earth.

Though the health workers were going over board with their attempt to vaccinate the school children, I can understand their frustrations. They are not doing it for selfish or diabolical reasons, but are angry at people who refuse to have their children vaccinated. They don't possess the power to force vaccines on children, it the government that can mandate that. But it's very important to give children all the required vaccinations.

As an example. One of my workers did not come to work yesterday because their 3 year baby has measles. It was so bad that the baby was hospitalized that's after trying all kinds of traditional remedies like 7 keys. When I inquired if the baby was fully vaccinated, he said no. I was really angry. I was angry that the negligent parents are putting not just the child at risk, but the whole society.

I really think she have ulterior motive, she was saying I am a small boy what do I know she want to see the hm, is it a man that is supposed to run a school? She wants to see a woman, my hm came telling her you are speaking with the owner of the school what ever information he has giving you that is it.

These days, everything is about right.

If you have seen the impact of Polio apart from what you see on TV, you will fight the government for not forcing your child without your consent.

Efforts are being made to save the fowl from dying, the ungrateful creature is complaining of being denied the right to roam to the dunghill.
