Childhood vaccinations

Remarks

Vaccins against diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus are combined in a cocktail, therefore percentages of infants vaccinated against diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus are the same (see WHO Vaccine Preventable Diseases Monitoring System for country specific vaccination schedules).

Diphtheria: percentage of infants reaching their first birthday in the given calendar year who have been fully vaccinated against diphtheria (3 doses of DPT or DT). Data are reported annually to, and available from, the CD unit at WHO-Europe.

Pertussis: percentage of infants reaching their first birthday in the given calendar year who have been fully vaccinated against pertussis. Data are reported annually to, and available from, the CD unit at WHO-Europe.

Tetanus: percentage of infants reaching their first birthday in the given calendar year who have been fully vaccinated against tetanus. Data are reported annually to, and available from, the CD unit at WHO-Europe.
