Actress Shabana Azmi has raised her voice for immunisation of children for diarrhea by the administration of rotavirus vaccine.
The 66-year-old actress took to Twitter to spread awareness to tackle the water-borne disease.
“India loses one child every seven minutes due to #rotavirus #diarrhea. #RotavirusVaccine helps prevents this disease n save lives #GetImmunised,” wrote Azmi.
