Global Disruptions to Routine Childhood Immunization During the Pandemic

11 Nov 2021
Maternal & Child Health

by Kate Causey et al 20 MIN READ

Routine immunisation services faced stark challenges in 2020, with the COVID-19 pandemic causing the most widespread and largest global disruption in recent history. Although the latest coverage trajectories point towards recovery in some regions, a combination of lagging catch-up immunisation services, continued Coronavirus transmissions, and persistent gaps in vaccine coverage before the pandemic still left millions of children under-vaccinated or unvaccinated against preventable diseases at the end of 2020. Unfortunately, these gaps are likely to extend throughout 2021. This study recommends that strengthening routine immunisation data systems and efforts to target resources and outreach will be essential to minimise the risk of vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks, reach children who missed routine vaccine doses during the pandemic, and accelerate progress towards higher and more equitable vaccination coverage over the next decade. It is a useful resource for policy makers.  Click here to read the study.
