Global vaccine at risk in the form of progress stalls

 

 

 A new global study has shown that the progress in vaccinating children against deadly diseases has stopped in the last two decades - and in some countries, even rebuilt. This dangerous instinct has been deteriorated by the Kovid -19 epidemic, causing millions of children to be unsafe from diseases like measles, tuberculosis and polio. Global health experts are urging immediate, coordinated action to restore and improve access to life saving vaccines for all children. Vaccination benefits in danger Since the launch of the global childhood vaccination program in 1974, more than four billion children have been immunized, preventing an estimated 150 million deaths worldwide. Exposing one of the most important achievements of public health, the vaccine coverage from 1974 to 2023 almost doubled. However, progress has stopped since 2010, and inequality in coverage has been increasing. Decline in uneven coverage and vaccination The new study published in the lensate indicates a worrying fall in measles vaccine coverage in about 100 countries. Despite the initial benefits, the vaccine uttake now vary widely between areas. The Covid-19 epidemic intensified the problem, as the lockdown and healthcare disruption disrupted the vaccination efforts. Till 2023, about 16 million children-it was not found in childhood vaccines in sub-Sahara Africa and South Asia. Growing health risk and immediate warning Dr. of Institute for Health Metrix and Evolution at Washington University. Jonathan Moser emphasized the gravity of the situation. He warns that constant global inequalities, disruption related to epidemic, and increasing vaccines have all contributed to the recession.

Without immediate action, outbreaks of diseases like measles, polio and diphtheria are likely to increase. Money differences and global failures While the use of vaccine in low -income countries remains a major challenge, the study also highlights the decline in vaccination rates in rich areas including Europe and parts of the United States. Due to reasons, fuel increases by misinformation, from cuts in funding to increase in vaccine hesitation. The crisis is no longer limited to poor countries - this is a global threat. Cost of inactivity Professor Sir Andrew Pollard, director of the Oxford Vaccine Group, said that the results of this below may be serious. If the situation is getting worse, prevention can cause more hospitalized, lifetime disability and child death. The global health budget cut is expected to further increase the crisis. Complex reason: war, misinformation and policy failure Dr. of University College London David Eliman indicates several factors contributing to the crisis. Civil unrest, ongoing war, and heavy cuts in foreign aid from rich countries like America and Britain have limited vaccine availability in important areas. When public health is inspired by misinformation rather than ethics, the results are destruction. What needs to be done Researchers urge all countries to strengthen their primary healthcare infrastructure and compete actively wrong information about vaccines. The creation of faith between parents and ensuring equal access to vaccines should be top priorities. Only through an integrated, science-based global response we can prevent the revival of malignant, yet completely prevented, disease.
