Towards universal childhood immunization: why we must and how we might.
Nearly 3 million children die each year of infectious diseases preventable with vaccines, many costing only pennies per dose. The shameful under use of existing vaccines receives scant attention. It is well within the reach of existing resources to assure the ongoing vaccination of all children everywhere. Human society needs to have universal immunization be achieved and maintained because child survival is a necessary precondition to a stable human population and to economic development. A path forward is suggested.
