The vaccination of the public, including the pediatric population was implemented through the collaboration of various agencies. WASH in Schools was evident in policies regarding the guidelines on prevention of the spread of disease. The data provided in this study will serve as a guide to address the barriers and further strengthen the implementation of these policies.
