Abstract

This study assesses the critical impact of vaccines on global health and population growth, citing a WHO 2018 report that emphasizes their role in dramatically reducing mortality. It explores the challenge of ensuring equitable vaccine access, particularly under constraints like remote locations and socio-political instability. The research highlights the integral roles of organizations such as WHO, UNICEF, and Gavi in facilitating vaccine distribution, especially evident during the COVID-19 pandemic. By examining the broader economic and social benefits of vaccines, this study advocates for informed policy-making to enhance vaccine funding and accessibility. The aim is to underscore the need for ongoing international cooperation to overcome the remaining barriers to global vaccine coverage.
