The measles immunisation rate in the Netherlands, based on the forecasted data, shows a gradual decline from 88.4% in 2024 to 86.5% in 2028. In 2023, the immunisation rate stood at 88.9%, indicating a declining trend through these years. The year-on-year variations are negative, with percentage decreases as follows: -0.57% from 2023 to 2024, -0.57% from 2024 to 2025, -0.57% from 2025 to 2026, -0.46% from 2026 to 2027, and -0.57% from 2027 to 2028. Over the last two years (2022-2023), the rate also decreased. The CAGR over the last five years is approximately -0.54%, representing a small but consistent average annual decline.
Future trends to watch for include changes in public health initiatives, vaccine supply chain stability, and public perception of vaccines. Increased efforts in education, improved healthcare accessibility, and policy enforcement could potentially counteract the declining trend. Monitoring these factors will be crucial in understanding and addressing the slight but steady drop in measles immunisation rates.
