Vaccine Coverage and Hesitancy Global Maternal and Child Health Immune responses and vaccinations

Abstract

Globally, around 10 million children die per year and over 27 million infants in the world do not get full routine immunization. Method: All the children aged 0-60 months, residing in a rehabilitation colony were enumerated assessed for immunization. The standard criteria for full partial and no immunization were used. Results: The overall coverage for various vaccines was BCG 86.5%, DPT1/OPV1 84.2%, DPT2/OPV2 82.2%, DPT3/OPV3 80.7%, DPT Booster 42.9%.A dropout rate (for DPT) of 4.16% was observed in the present study. Conclusion---Rapid growth, high population density and low coverage in urban slums calls for growing emphasis on Immunization coverage.
