While childhood vaccination rates stagnated for the rest of the world, they increased in Brazil in 2023.
After recovering partly in 2022, global childhood vaccination rates stagnated in 2023, remaining below pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels. These data are from a new joint report by the World Health Organization and the United Nations Children 's Fund .
On the other hand, the number of so-called"zero-dose" children, who have not received any dose of the vaccine, increased from 13.9 million in 2022 to 14.5 million in 2023. Health Minister Nísia Trindade welcomed the results, recalling that"since 2016, Brazil had been facing increasing drops in vaccination coverage for various vaccines on the childhood immunization schedule.
Countries' health systems are vulnerable to various factors that hinder adequate childhood immunization, including conflicts, lack of investment, and disease outbreaks.
