Objective This study aimed to assess the…
Measles second dose vaccine uptake and associated factors among under-five children in Jigjiga City, Somali Region, Eastern Ethiopia
Background Measles is one of the leading causes of under-five mortality and morbidity worldwide. Although the routine service for the second dose of the measles-containing vaccine (MCV2) was introduced in Ethiopia recently, there is a paucity of evidence regarding its coverage and the factors that hinder its uptake at both the local and national levels. Thus, this study aimed to assess the uptake of MCV2 and its associated factors among children …
Incidence and predictors of loss to follow-up among adult patients receiving antiretroviral therapy in Central Ethiopia
