[FrontPageAfrica] Monrovia -- At the Duport Health Facility, located in Paynesville City, Montserrado County, in April 2023, Esther Kerkula waited patiently in a small reception area with her young baby girl. She believes mothers who stayed away from health facilities during the height of COVID-19 should not be blamed. "Everyone was afraid. Even if I had baby, I would also stay away. But now, COVID-19 has gone and a lot of women are bringing their babies to the hospitals for vaccination."
