Global Burden of Disease Study 2023 (GBD 2023) Routine Childhood Vaccination Coverage Estimates and Forecasts 1980-2030

Estimates of vaccination coverage for 11 childhood vaccines (first-dose bacillus Calmette-Guérin [BCG], first- and third-dose diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis [DTP1, DTP3], third-dose hepatitis B [HepB3], third-dose Haemophilus influenzae type b [Hib3], first- and second-dose measles [MCV1, MCV2], third-dose pneumococcal conjugate vaccine [PCV3], third-dose polio [Pol3], first-dose rubella-containing vaccine [RCV1], and complete rotavirus [RotaC, two or three doses]) were produced for 204 countries and territories between 1980 and 2023 as part of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023 (GBD 2023). The estimation process primarily used household survey microdata, household survey report data in the absence of microdata, and estimates of country-reported coverage data. Forecasted coverage was estimated from 2024 to 2030 for DTP3, MCV2 and PCV3 under reference, better, and worse scenarios.
