Measles and Rubella are transmitted from the spread of susceptible viruses that occur in children aged 9 months to 15 years and pregnant women. The risk of measles and rubella transmission can be prevented through immunization. One area with a high number of cases of transmission of measles and rubella is Solok city, West Sumatra province, which has reached the level of emergency immunization status, but the issue of the content of illicit substances in the vaccine raises doubts and rejection from the community, so the achievement of immunization in Solok city is low and there was no decrease in the rate of transmission of measles and rubella in 2018, then a design was needed to provide information and awareness to the people of Solok city about the dangers of infectious diseases and the importance of immunization through the Measles Rubella vaccine that is lawful, safe and beneficial. Data obtained by conducting observations, interviews, questionnaires and literature. The results of data analysis will serve as the basis for designing social campaigns so as to facilitate access to information availability and provide awareness to the public in conducting measles and rubella immunization campaigns.
