Public Health Administration
Describe the public health topic area that you selected and why
you selected it.
Immunization is the process of ensuring that a person is
resistant or immune to an infectious disease which is mainly
through the administration of a vaccine. Vaccines are essential
in stimulating the immune system in a person’s body in order to
shield one against successive disease or infection. I choose
immunization as the topic area since as much as we would want
to look away from it, it is has a major influence in the general
health of the nation. Immunization is not only essential in our
state; Saudi Arabia but it is also plays significant roles in other
states all over the world. According to the World Health
Organization, immunization has been proven to be a tool that
helps in eliminating and controlling infectious diseases that are

2. life-threatening and is anticipated to prevent between two to
three million deaths annually. This is among the reasons that the
topic area is important to look at.
According to Kern County Public Health Services Department,
immunization through the use of vaccines has transformed the
modern world. Unlike fifty years back, widespread diseases and
illnesses such as rubella, measles, polio, and others crippled and
caused deaths of hundreds of thousands of patients, but
currently these illnesses do not pose a threat to the community
as a result of preventative vaccines use. Immunization requires
attention as it is not limited to children but is also people
belonging to all lifestyles and ages need to be immunized as
well as people who come across young children. In Saudi
Arabia, it has not been different, immunization has been
important in eliminating the risk of infection of illnesses such
as variola disease, smallpox and meningitis which in the past
caused the death of millions of people. The situation is different
now as a result of the use of vaccines which help in boosting
people’s immune and saves people’s lives.
Compare and contrast (describe what is similar and what is
different) the immunization programs in Kern County and Saudi
Arabia.
Immunization processes or systems in Kern County differ and
are similar with those in Saudi Arabia in various ways. In both
regions immunization is provided for adolescents, children as
well as adults in order to avert them from vaccine-preventable
illnesses. The aim of both immunization programs is to protect
people from against the incidence of infectious illnesses,
vaccine-targeted illnesses and their severe complications in the
bid to achieve a healthy community. In Kern County
immunizations are provided at no cost or at a low cost whereas
in Saudi Arabia, immunizations are provided at no cost. Initially

3. in Saudi Arabia immunizations were provided at no cost but this
privilege was limited to Saudi Arabia citizens but currently it is
provided to everyone at no cost regardless of their nationality a
move that was declared by the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Health
(Ministry of Health Saudi Arabia, 2017). In both areas; Kern
County and Saudi Arabia, illnesses that are commonly
vaccinated include rubella, mumps, rotavirus and meningitis and
they are majorly mentioned in the regions immunization
program websites. In both regions, the health departments have
come up with initiatives to facilitate the number of vaccines
provided to citizens though the programs differ. In both
programs, there is the development and manufacturing of new
immunizations to basic illnesses such as Hepatitis B and
meningitis as a result of the development in research and
development in the health service departments. Regardless of
the innovation of new vaccines people in Kern County as well
as Saudi Arabia have to make a decision on the manner in which
they will use vaccines, these decisions mainly depend on the
child’s parents and practitioners. The new vaccines are new to
the health departments and therefore doctors should take time to
discuss their use for adults, children, and adolescents since they
are not included in the existing immunization schedules.
The Kern County and the Saudi Arabia immunization schedules
for various diseases differ and may be similar in various ways.
In the case of the Rotavirus, it is administered to children orally
in both areas but the different occurs in the doses and the
periods they are vaccinated. Ministry of Health Saudi Arabia,
(2017) in Saudi Arabia the first dose is administered when a
child is 9 months old and the second at 12 months old whereas
in Kern County, the vaccine can either be administered in three
doses at ages 6, 4 and 2 months or in two doses at ages 2 and 4
months. Other basic vaccines immunization schedule are as
shown below

The two areas; Kern County and Saudi Arabia as mentioned
above have initiatives aimed at facilitating vaccination of
people. In Saudi Arabia, people that take part in the
immunization process, they are given a privilege to study for
free in public schools in the state a move that facilitates the
society’s health. In Kern County, the initiative is inform of a
pilot program whereby third parties are used to facilitate the
vaccination program, the government has a strategy to bill both
private and public insurance payers whenever an immunization

5. service is offered to an insured client.
Identify which of the Ten Essential Functions of Public Health
are associated with immunization programs.
In Saudi Arabia, according to the research carried out above,
the essential function of public health that can be associated
with the state’s immunization program is to inform, educate and
to empower people on health issues. The above function is
depicted in the Saudi Arabia’s health department website which
offers information on various vaccinations available for various
illnesses such as smallpox and upcoming immunization
programs. This function is also evident in the Kern County’s
immunization program website, which is after informing people
and preventing them from vaccine-targetable diseases (Kern
County Public Health Services Department, 2014). In Kern
County, the function on mobilizing community partnerships as
well as actions to spot and solve health problems is applicable
in its immunization program which is evident in the pilot
program that was initiated by the government. The pilot
program is used to mobilize insurance payers who in this case
are considered as the community partnerships which are aimed
at enhancing health by solving the problem of the vaccine-
targetable illnesses.
In conclusion, immunization is a basic topic area that requires
to be considered as it influences the society’s health and the
doctor’s practices regardless of the state. The Kern County and
the Saudi Arabia immunization programs are similar in some
ways and differ in others but their overall aim is to protect
people from against the incidence of infectious illnesses,
vaccine-targeted illnesses and their severe complications in the
bid to achieve a healthy community.
