Vaccine Program

Health authorities in the capital have set up vaccination clinics at shopping malls, supermarkets, and the national university to increase access to flu, tetanus, and measles shots, responding to two imported measles cases confirmed in Honduras.

Honduras will offer measles vaccinations at major airports—including San Pedro Sula, La Ceiba, and Roatán—for travelers heading to countries with active outbreaks; the vaccine must be administered at least 14 days before travel.

A new measles case has been confirmed in Honduras, prompting Congressman and physician Bayron Banegas to urge health authorities to immediately implement epidemiological containment measures and strengthen disease surveillance to prevent wider transmission.

The Health Ministry is urging Hondurans to visit their nearest vaccination site on May 30–31 to complete their immunization schedules, reminding them to bring their vaccination cards.

The Health Secretariat announced it is extending the National Vaccination and Deworming Campaign through June to reach more families across the country.
