World Immunization Day
World Immunization Day, observed on November 10, highlights the importance of vaccines in preventing infectious diseases and safeguarding public health. Immunisation initiatives, like India’s Universal Immunization Programme and Mission Indradhanush, focus on reaching underserved populations and reducing child mortality. Despite achieving 93.23% vaccination coverage in FY 2023-24 and significant mortality reductions, challenges remain in reaching remote areas and managing vaccine hesitancy. Continued efforts to innovate, educate, and improve vaccine delivery systems are essential for advancing public health and ensuring equitable access to life-saving immunisation.
