    Introduction "The impact of vaccination on the health of the world's peoples is hard to exaggerate. With the exception of safe water, no other modality has had such a major effect on mortality reduction and population growth" (Plotkin and Mortimer, 1988).The development of safe and efficacious vaccination against diseases that cause substantial morbidity and mortality has been one of the ...

  11. Contribution of vaccination to improved survival and health: modelling

    Since 1974 substantial gains in childhood survival have occurred in every global region. We estimate that EPI has provided the single greatest contribution to improved infant survival over the past 50 years. In the context of strengthening primary health care, our results show that equitable universal access to immunisation remains crucial to sustain health gains and continue to save future ...

    COVID-19 vaccination has substantially altered the course of the pandemic, saving tens of millions of lives globally. However, inadequate access to vaccines in low-income countries has limited the impact in these settings, reinforcing the need for global vaccine equity and coverage.

  16. Impact of Routine Childhood Immunization in Reducing Vaccine

    Childhood vaccination has dramatically reduced morbidity, mortality, and disability caused by vaccine-preventable diseases, with ∼21 million hospitalizations, 732 000 deaths, and 322 million cases of disease averted in the United States between 1994 and 2013. 1 Among diseases targeted by vaccines recommended before 1980, 3—polio, measles, and rubella—have achieved elimination status as ...

  17. Long-term effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines against infections

    Our analyses indicate that vaccine effectiveness generally decreases over time against SARS-CoV-2 infections, hospitalisations, and mortality. The baseline vaccine effectiveness levels for the omicron variant were notably lower than for other variants. Therefore, other preventive measures (eg, face-mask wearing and physical distancing) might be necessary to manage the pandemic in the long term.
