Immunization attributable burden of stunting among under-five children in India, 2005–2021
Though several factors have contributed to the overall reduction of stunting, the FI-attributable burden of stunting has shown a reduction among the heterogeneous child population in India during 2005-2021. Thus, it is important to monitor the progress of immunization coverage among children from different socio-economic strata to further lower the stunting prevalence in India.
