14 million children did not receive a single vaccine in 2024, UN estimates
UNITED STATES, JUL 15 – Funding cuts, misinformation, and conflict have stalled vaccination progress, leaving 14.3 million children unvaccinated—4 million above the 2024 target, WHO and UNICEF reported.
- On July 15, 2025, the United Nations disclosed that over 14 million children worldwide had not received any vaccinations throughout 2024.
- This situation results from widespread misinformation about vaccine safety and severe international aid cuts disrupting immunization programs.
- Global vaccine coverage rose modestly to 85% for the three-dose DTP vaccine, but coverage remains deeply unequal with nine countries accounting for over half of unvaccinated children.
- WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus warned that significant reductions in funding, along with false information regarding vaccine safety, risk reversing years of achievements in public health.
- The report suggests that unless funding and trust improve, millions of children will continue facing risks from preventable diseases amid measles and whooping cough outbreaks worldwide.
