It was good but not great. The message is not getting out as well as it should.

It's a bit disturbing that there is that level of resistance. It suggests there is a need for more publicity, more training, more positive reinforcement. It's an ongoing battle.

The context for these events is a primary health care system that has suffered from a decrease in resources and is struggling to manage the expectations placed on it.

We are by no means at the end of this outbreak. While we have done a good job ... there's still more work to be done.

The public perception of the importance of vaccination has also diminished.

The preparation was good and certainly at this stage, there are encourage signs that the first national immunization day was a success. There was good media coverage and good public perception of the need for vaccination.
