Path to full immunisation coverage, role of each vaccine and their importance in the immunisation programme: a cross-sectional analytical study of India
Targeted efforts are essential to bridge immunisation gaps and achieve universal coverage in India. Focusing on antigen-specific zero dose and partially vaccinated children, particularly those missing OPV doses and measles vaccine offers the potential to improve full immunisation coverage. Therefore, to achieve the IA2030 requires an intensified target for reaching absolute zero and antigen-wise zero dose.
