Global childhood vax coverage stalled in 2023, 2.7 million kids unprotected, says UN

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: Global childhood vaccination coverage stalled in 2023, leaving an estimated 2.7 million children more un- and under-vaccinated compared to pre-pandemic levels in 2019, according to the UN on Monday. Warning of an alarming coverage gap that has led to an outbreak of diseases like malaria, the latest World Health Organisation and UNICEF estimates of national immunisation coverage said about 14.5 million children failed to get vaccinated in 2023, compared with 13.9 million a year earlier. According to the findings, the number of children who received three doses of the vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis in 2023—a key marker for global immunisation coverage—stalled at 84%, or 108 million. “Closing the immunisation gap requires a global effort, with governments, partners, and local leaders investing in primary healthcare and community workers to ensure every child gets vaccinated and that overall healthcare is strengthened.” These trends, which show that global immunisation coverage has remained largely unchanged since 2022 and, more alarmingly, has still not returned to 2019 levels, reflect ongoing challenges with disruptions in healthcare services, logistical challenges, vaccine hesitancy, and inequities in access to services.
