GNN webinar on DTP and results of the off-label use of vaccines survey - Video

With the support of TechNet, the GNN is organizing the first webinar of 2025

To maintain long-term protection against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (DTP), booster doses of DTP-containing vaccines are needed beyond the primary infant series. WHO recommends three diphtheria and tetanus boosters and at least one pertussis booster during childhood and adolescence, given as combination vaccines. However, as of 2023 (reported JRF data), only 83 countries have all three WHO-recommended boosters in their schedules, and 43 countries (primarily in the African region) have no boosters at all. As of December 2023, Gavi-eligible countries can apply for DTPcv booster support.
