The gap in childhood immunizations with Ed Kelley

Published on Thu, Nov 2nd 2023 Entertainment Rectangular HD

In July 2023, UNICEF reported that over 65 million children worldwide have missed some or all of their routine immunizations. This is the largest gap in essential childhood immunizations that we’ve faced. In this TEDMED Conversation, Ed Kelley, PhD, Chief Global Health Officer, Apiject Systems, Corp., and Kelly Thomas, PhD, Director of Scientific Content, TEDMED, discuss how we may make up the difference.

We discuss:
-The current state of global routine childhood vaccinations
-Mobilizing local health workers to help close the gap
-The organizations necessary to catch up on missed vaccinations
