Due to limited access to hospitals, many newborns are facing more challenges during #COVID19. However #HealthcareHeroes, like Mekdes in #Ethiopia are making a tremendous difference by helping advise parents on #COVID19, pregnancy & diseases like measles. #ForEveryChild #Health

Many parents are unknowingly subjecting their children to deadly #vaccine-preventable diseases. “Given the horrible situation that I went through, I decided to always encourage my neighbors and relatives to take their children for vaccination.” #measles unicef.org/southsudan/sto…

School creates lasting memories for #children. Whether it’s a friend, teacher or a subject, #children are inspired when they go to school. What are your children saying about their first day of school after the long closure? Did they like it? What has changed? #BackToSchool2020
