As of 2023, the share of neonates in Brazil protected at birth against neonatal tetanus was an estimated 95%. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady improvement, with protection levels increasing slightly from 96% in 2024 to 97% in 2027 and 2028. This indicates a positive but slow trend in immunization efforts, reflecting a modest year-on-year increase around 1% annually between 2026 and 2027 and a similar rate from 2027 to 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the five-year forecast period is relatively flat due to the stable increase.
Future trends to watch for in Brazil include policy or programmatic changes that might enhance vaccination coverage further. Additionally, monitoring any potential challenges such as vaccine supply chain disruptions or shifts in healthcare priorities will be crucial in maintaining and improving protection rates among neonates.
