Dr Mohammad Sharif Razai said,

“The data informs that uptake is growing, but in uneven ways, with disparities in

کتاب زمین سوخته احمد محمود به دستم رسید. داستان بسیار پُر شتاب و با تب و تابی ست. هر چند از سوژه جنگ خوشم نمی آید اما شیوه نگارش و پرداختن در این کتاب بسیار جالب است.

Vaccination programmes must move beyond the laboratory and into the lived realities of pregnant women, where trust, misinformation, systemic barriers and social norms converge.
