Immunization A National Priority in Thailand

In Thailand, immunization has been a national priority for over 40 years. Dr Jurai Wongsawat, Senior Advisor and Pediatric Infectious Diseases Specialist, Chairperson of NITAG and NCPE Thailand, Member of NITAG Thailand, highlights how Thailand—fully self-funded for vaccines—has successfully implemented around 40 essential vaccines into its national programme. The country continues to expand coverage to reach broader populations, and include newer vaccines, with a strong commitment to equity—ensuring that every child is reached and no family or vulnerable community is left behind. ▶️ Watch more #WorldImmunizationWeek #VaccinesWork #HealthForAll
