90% vaccination target set for 2030
A whopping 1.44 million children in India did not receive a single shot of any routine vaccination in 2023, a new global study published Wednesday in The Lancet said.
The study also stated that India recorded the second-highest number of "zero-dose" children—defined as those lacking access to or never reached by routine immunisation services—after Nigeria. India also stood among the eight countries, along with Nigeria and Ethiopia, where more than half of the unvaccinated children from around the world lived as of 2023, according to an analysis by the Global Burden of Disease Study Vaccine Coverage Collaborators.
