MANILA, Philippines—All over the world, the Philippines has the fifth highest number of children who have not received even a single routine vaccine, so the League of Municipalities of the Philippines (LMP) called on local governments to 'prioritize routine and catch-up immunization.' Based on data, which was released by the United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef), there were 67 million children all over the world who missed out on routine vaccination between 2019 and 2022. Out of this, 48 million were 'zero dose,' or children who did not receive even a single routine vaccine.
