Department for International Development written question – answered at on 16 October 2017.
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what estimate she has made of the number of children that will be vaccinated through the GAVI vaccine alliance by the end of 2020.
Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, aims to vaccinate 300 million children between 2016 and 2020, saving between 5 and 6 million lives. This represents 60% of the world’s children. Gavi is ahead of schedule having immunised 62 million children in 2016 against a target of 50 million, and I estimate that Gavi will exceed its 300 million children target by the end of 2020.
