Halal concerns drive vaccine hesitancy as Indonesia fights measles outbreak

Health workers in Sumenep, Indonesia, are delivering measles vaccines to children. This effort is part of a campaign to curb a deadly measles outbreak on Madura Island, which has persisted for nine months. Over 2,600 children have been infected this year, and 20 have died. Efforts face challenges due to concerns about the vaccine's halal status, because some vaccines contain a pig-derived stabilizer. Some Islamic scholars say it's permissible under certain conditions, but hesitancy remains. The regional government aims to distribute over 78,000 vaccines to prevent future outbreaks, but they can't compel reluctant parents. (AP Video by Andi Jatmiko)
