Key Market Indicators
Micronesian Vaccination Coverage Set to Decline Micronesia's vaccination coverage for children aged one is projected to reach 75 percent by 2028, marking a slight decrease from the current 76 percent in 2023. This represents an average annual decline of 0.3 percentage points over the five-year period. The trend indicates a departure from the historical pattern observed since 1992, where the vaccination coverage in the Micronesian market experienced an average annual increase of 0.3 percentage points. Public health officials and policymakers may need to address the underlying factors contributing to this projected decline to ensure sustained immunization rates among the nation's youngest population.
