At the same time, measles vaccination campaigns in 23 countries, originally planned for 2020, were postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic, it found.

Kevin Cain, CDC’s global immunisation director, said the combination of vaccine gaps, measles outbreaks, and declines in detection and diagnostics, increases the likelihood of measles-related deaths and serious complications in children.

他敦促说:“国家和全球卫生伙伴必须优先考虑发现和疫苗接种麻疹,以减少这种疾病的爆炸性风险和可预防的死亡。”

彼得•Ofware肯尼亚国家健康和主管human rights organisation HealthRight International, said countries in Sub-Saharan Africa which are disproportionately affected by the disease must adopt a multi-sectoral approach to get vaccination campaigns back on track.

Ofware说:“各国可能必须与发展合作伙伴建立合作伙伴关系,甚至审查其预算,以将资源重新指导到疫苗接种活动中。”

世界卫生组织免疫,疫苗和生物学系局长凯特·奥布赖恩(Kate O’Brien)承认,对国家尽快对Covid-19进行疫苗接种至关重要。她补充说:“但这需要新的资源,因此它不得以基本免疫计划为代价。”

“Routine immunisation must be protected and strengthened, otherwise we risk trading one deadly disease for another.”
