The VCP – Africa CDC study suggests there could be reasons for this reduction other than the disruption of vaccination programmes during the pandemic.

An examination of trends in vaccine confidence across eight sub-Saharan countries between 2020 and 2022.

The latest WHO/UNICEF estimates of national childhood immunisation coverage have revealed the largest declines in routine immunisation uptake globally in three decades. Through a large-scale retrospective modelling study, we investigate the extent to which vaccine confidence has changed globally using pre- and post-pandemic.

The State of the World’s Children 2023 was developed in collaboration with VCP and using Vaccine Confidence Index data. It reveals that public perception of the importance of vaccines for children declined during the COVID-19 pandemic in 52 out of 55 countries studied.

The VCP-Africa CDC working group has been conducting quantitative research in multiple waves from 2020 to 2022.

An interactive dashboard showcasing data gathered across two waves of quantitative research (Jan-2022 and Aug-2022) conducted as part of the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention Working Group Project.

These reports visualise findings from surveys fielded across 7 African countries in August 2022.

Vaccine confidence in Senegal is high compared to other countries.
