Article Synopsis
- Child mortality and morbidity are critical global health issues, largely driven by infectious diseases and low vaccination rates; the study uses a Bayesian zero-inflated Poisson regression model to explore vaccine uptake among children aged 12-23 months in Nigeria.*
-
- Data from nearly 20,000 children across four years (2003, 2008, 2013, and 2018) show an increase in full vaccination rates, from 6.5% to 23.3%, with significant regional disparities, highlighting marked differences between states (1.7% in Sokoto and 51.9% in Anambra).*
-
- Factors influencing vaccine uptake include maternal age, education level, wealth status, and community
