Reread the poem "The Negro Speaks of Rivers" (copied below). Then answer this question: What do you think the poet wanted readers to get out of this poem? What might the message (or theme) be? "The Negro Speaks of Rivers" by Langston Hughes

I've known rivers:

Ancient, dusky rivers.

My soul has grown deep like the rivers.

I NEED HELP AND I NEED SERIOUS ANSWERS.

can you share the passage so i can answer the question : )

the percentage of who member states incorporating seasonal influenza vaccination into national immunization programs remains low with significant regional variations. high vaccine and service costs, competing health priorities, difficulties in measuring vaccine efficacy and cost–effectiveness, and adverse public opinion regarding vaccination all influence the policy decisions affecting national immunization programs.

effectively communicating the benefit of influenza vaccination is an essential component to increase the vaccine uptake and inclusion into national influenza immunization programmes. firstly, these benefits need to be understood by the key players that promote vaccination at national level (health promotion departments and healthcare workers). health care workers are increasingly important in influencing vaccination choices, and new appro
