Reaching Zero-Dose Children in India: Four Family Archetypes
Seeking solutions for reaching zero-dose children, the authors dive deep into the barriers to immunization in two states in India. The key takeaway: zero-dose children are not one uniform group, and they face a diverse set of barriers based on their environment, socio-economic status, family dynamics, and cultural beliefs. The authors suggest possible effective solutions.
