The interim gov is the main culprit behind this deadly measles epidemic
- They cancelled deal with Unicef and gavi causing depleted stocks of vaccine shots and syringes
- didn't conduct the routine mass vaccination campaign scheduled for 2024
- didn't distribute the second round of vitamin a capsules which is what made the disease so deadly
Some are blaming BNP and BAL for it. But truth is BAL did mass measles vaccination campaign in 2016 and 2020 ensuring everyone was vaccinated. And BNP reversed all the irrational choices made by 'banker' turned health advisor Nurjahan Begum as fast as they could.
