National Immunization Program (NIP)

The National Immunization Program (NIP) is a government initiative aimed at protecting public health by providing vaccinations to prevent various infectious diseases. It ensures that vaccines are available at little or no cost, targeting children and vulnerable populations. The program promotes vaccines for diseases like measles, polio, and hepatitis, helping to reduce illness and save lives. By maintaining high vaccination rates, the NIP works to create herd immunity, which protects those who cannot be vaccinated, and ultimately strives to eliminate or control diseases that can cause serious health issues.
