The article discusses global improvements in childhood vaccination rates post-pandemic, but highlights that progress remains too slow according to the World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF. In 2025, approximately 90% of children received their first dose of the DTP vaccine, while 85% completed all three doses. This represents a slight improvement compared to the previous year, but global vaccination levels remain below pre-pandemic levels. The number of unvaccinated children has decreased slightly, but millions still lack protection due to conflicts, displacement, and poverty. WHO and UNICEF emphasize that many children start vaccinations but fail to complete them, leaving them vulnerable to diseases like measles. Efforts are ongoing in regions such as Gaza and Algeria to increase immunization coverage.
