Vaccination Coverage

Vaccination coverage refers to the percentage of a population that has received vaccines to protect against specific diseases. High vaccination coverage is crucial for community health, as it helps prevent outbreaks and protect those who cannot be vaccinated, such as infants or individuals with certain health conditions. Achieving good coverage requires accessible vaccination services and public awareness about the importance of immunization. Governments and health organizations often monitor and promote vaccination coverage to ensure the community remains protected from infectious diseases.
