flag Global cholera vaccination resumes with 70M doses yearly, targeting high-risk areas in Mozambique, Congo, and Bangladesh.

flag The World Health Organization, GAVI, and UNICEF have restarted global preventive cholera vaccination programs after a nearly four-year pause due to a severe vaccine shortage. flag Improved supply now provides nearly 70 million doses annually, enabling the first allocation of 20 million doses—3.6 million to Mozambique, 6.1 million to Congo, and 10.3 million to Bangladesh. flag The shift from reactive to preventive use aims to reduce outbreaks in high-risk areas affected by poverty, conflict, and climate-related flooding. flag While a one-dose strategy remains standard, two-dose campaigns may be used case by case. flag Cholera caused over 600,000 cases and nearly 7,600 deaths globally in 2025, with rising threats despite a slight decline in cases. flag Officials stress that vaccines must be paired with clean water and sanitation for lasting impact.
