Speaking at the official launch of the campaign in Maputo, the minister said the goal is to vaccinate 4,801,544 teenagers aged between 12 and 17 years old and the first round will last for two weeks.
"It is important to note that, in the first two days of this campaign, we vaccinated around 765,000 adolescents across the country, representing a coverage of 16 percent of the target group, which makes us anticipate good results until the end," said the minister.
