Towards strengthening response to disease outbreak in #Nigeria! UNICEF Nigeria & NCDC commit to stronger partnership & collaboration.

This week, with support from CDC and IANPHI, we are hosting a Rapid Response refresher training for NCDC staff. The training will build on core competencies for preparedness and response for public health emergencies.

We are grateful for Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance's support in #Nigeria. We will make it count.

Tomorrow, @MahmoodDalhat will be speaking at the NCDC Research Presentation on the topic: #YellowFever - NEW DEVELOPMENTS; A CASE FOR URGENT NATIONAL CONCERN. Join us at the NCDC Situation Room, 801 Ebitu Ukiwe Street, Jabi by 3PM. #NCDCJournalReview
