Political commitment, adequate planning, careful logistics and media preparation, and adequate supervision, coupled with house-to-house registration of vaccines, including follow-up of nonattendees, were important ingredients in accelerating and improving immunization coverage in Somalia. Satellite immunization sites with outreach teams, along with utilization of traditional birth attendants to channel mothers, are planned to ensure sustainability of achievements.
