Kyiv • UNN
1.5 million Ukrainians have missed necessary vaccinations due to war and displacement. The rate of vaccination of children against diphtheria and tetanus is 30% lower than in the EU, the Health Ministry reports.
The Ministry of Health reports that 1.5 million Ukrainians have missed the necessary vaccinations, partially or completely, due to the war and displacement. The vaccination rate among children against diphtheria and tetanus is particularly low, 30% lower than in EU countries.
This was announced by the Deputy Minister of Health, Chief State Sanitary Doctor Igor Kuzin during a telethon, reports a correspondent of UNN .
Among the main indicators of childhood vaccination in Ukraine, the worst results are for the diphtheria and tetanus vaccine. Unfortunately, Ukrainian children are at least 30% less vaccinated than EU children
According to him, this is due to the war and constant travel.
“As of today, national figures have been approved, where we have calculated the number of people who have missed vaccinations. It is estimated that 1.5 million Ukrainians have missed the necessary vaccinations, some completely and some partially,” Kuzin said.
To recap
The Ministry of Health has approved updated recommendations on coronavirus vaccination. Vaccination schemes for the population are being simplified.
