flag South Africa reports low childhood vaccination rates, leading to a resurgence of preventable diseases.

flag South Africa is facing a resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases, including measles, diphtheria, and whooping cough, due to a sharp decline in childhood immunization rates. flag Officials report that only 75.3% of children under one were vaccinated in the latest financial year, down from 83% the previous year, leaving a large portion of the population vulnerable to outbreaks. flag To combat this, health authorities are launching community awareness campaigns to encourage parents to ensure their children receive all recommended doses and catch up on missed immunizations.
