COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT
Paucity of research about vaccines and immunization at my country and the regional contexts led me to choose publishing my articles and reports in open access journals and to post preprints during the publication process to ensure sharing my experiences with other researchers as well as spreading knowledge to help in developing future strategies at communication and programs levels.
