With Better Immunization Cards, Will More Kids Get Vaccinated?
The Gates Foundation challenged the global health community to redesign immunization cards. Here are the results.
This final week in April is World Immunization Week--a campaign by the World Health Organization (WHO) aimed at raising awareness of the vital importance of vaccines, which prevent 2 to 3 million deaths every year. Yet despite the sophisticated vaccines available, studies show that 1 in 5 children still miss out. In 2012, an estimated 22.6 million infants didn't receive routine immunizations. More than half of these children live in three countries: India, Indonesia, and Nigeria.
