Universal vaccination program
A universal vaccination program is a public health initiative that provides vaccines to all individuals within a specific population, regardless of age or health status. Its goal is to prevent the spread of infectious diseases by ensuring widespread immunity, protecting both individuals and the community as a whole. By vaccinating a large portion of the population, these programs help reduce disease incidence, prevent outbreaks, and contribute to overall health security. They are typically coordinated by governments or health organizations and are based on scientific evidence demonstrating vaccine safety and effectiveness.
