Vitamin A is an important micronutrient for the health and complete development of children, contributing to strengthening the immune system against infections. In addition, Vitamin A helps children see well and helps them distinguish colors. Therefore, if children are deficient in Vitamin A, it can lead to serious health problems such as reduced vision, immunodeficiency, and increased risk of infections such as skin infections, diarrhea, respiratory infections.

In order to prevent Vitamin A deficiency in children, the Ministry of Health organizes two rounds of Vitamin A supplementation every year in June and December. Parents are advised to take their children to the nearest healthcare facility for consultation and to receive Vitamin A according to the appropriate dosage.
