Now available! @WHO estimates of global impact of vaccination against 14 key pathogens for Immunization Agenda 2030

Vaccinations administered between the years 2021 and 2030 could avert an estimated 51.5 million deaths

It's #WorldImmunizationWeek

#Immunization is one of humanity's greatest achievements helping to eradicate smallpox and save at least 3 million lives a year.

And you’re part of it. By being vaccinated, you’re helping to keep others safe. Now we need your help again.

We’re calling on world leaders to commit urgent funds to childhood vaccines, because no one deserves to die of an illness we can prevent.

Join us, and show the world what’s #HumanlyPossible.

Vaccination will have the largest impact on low- and lower middle- income countries (75% of total deaths averted) and in the African region (45% of total deaths)

As we begin 2023, we note the positive milestones of 2022: see this global top 10 for the year that includes the growing reach of the first malaria vaccine to children in Africa + the life-saving power of #CovidVaccines #VaccinesWork

The #Modeling4policy workshop ended today after 3 days of intense discussions. The participants consolidated ideas and built consensus for a draft roadmap which will be soon shared.

Many thanks to the participants who shared their experiences and worked on this roadmap

In 2022 the world is experiencing one of the largest backslides of global immunization rates in history.

Now is the only chance we have to work together, to pull resources and invest in vaccinating humanity against all diseases and illnesses.
