It is probably due to a fear of contracted Covid-19 emerged among the community when coming to posyandu. In addition to low vaccine availability for infants, lack of maternal knowledge is one of the causes of the low vaccination rates among infants in this village. This education was aimed to increase maternal knowledge about the importance of basic immunization for infants to prevent diseases. The result showed increased maternal understanding of the importance of basic immunization after the education program was given.
