Abstract

In The Lancet, Kate Causey and colleagues1 report their estimates of the disruptions to routine childhood immunisation coverage for the third-dose diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP3) vaccine and first-dose measles-containing vaccine (MCV1) at the global, regional, and national levels due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These modelled estimates are of importance to national immunisation programmes for planning and implementing catch-up vaccination services to close the immunity gaps and prevent vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks.
