The measles immunization coverage for children aged 12-23 months in the Philippines was 62% in 2023. The forecasted data indicate a decline in coverage, with the percentage expected to be 60% in 2024, 59% in 2025, 57% in 2026, and 56% in 2027. This represents a year-on-year decline of approximately 3.2% between 2023 and 2024 and a further 1.7% average annual decline over the subsequent years, leading to a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of -2.53% over the five-year period from 2023 to 2027.
Key future trends to watch for include:
- Government interventions and public health campaigns aimed at increasing immunization rates.
- Accessibility and availability of vaccines across different regions.
- Potential impact of global health initiatives and funding to improve immunization coverage.
