In South Kivu, MSF is running a mass immunization campaign in Fizi health zone that aims to vaccinate 120,000 children between the ages of 6 months and 15 years against measles over a period of six weeks.  This would represent over 90% vaccination coverage for the health zone. Preparations started after a measles epidemic was confirmed at the end of September. Since then MSF has treated around 300 people suffering from measles and its complications. Photograph by Haavar Karlsen
