On 8 December 2020 in Coventry, UK, 90-year-old Margaret Keenan became the first person to receive a dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine the first coronavirus vaccine to be approved for emergency use in the west. (Moderna and the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccines were made available soon after.) At last, there was a glimmer of hope that an end was in sight to the worst pandemic for more than a century.
If we could get at least 70 per cent of a country’s population to have a vaccine, we could attain the much sought-after ‘herd immunity’ and hope for a return to some kind of normality. But despite both Pfizer and Moderna reporting their vaccines to have a 95 per cent efficacy with no serious safety concerns, the most recent Ipsos-World Economic Forum survey shows that vaccine confidence has dropped in many countries, most significantly in South Africa, Russia and France where as few as 40 per cent of those asked said they intended to get vaccinated.

SEATTLE (December 16, 2020) - While the world witnessed impressive progress in immunizing children against measles between 2000 and 2010, the last 10 years have seen such efforts stalling in low- and middle-income nations, according to a new scientific study.
The pre-pandemic vulnerabilities identified by this analysis are likely to be exacerbated as efforts to immunize children have been further disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. As the world responds to the COVID pandemic, it s going to be vital to address these pre-existing gaps in coverage, while also making sure that children missed during the pandemic receive their necessary immunizations, said Alyssa Sbarra, the study s lead author and a researcher at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington s School of Medicine. If that doesn t happen, the pandemic will compound the existing weaknesses in immunization systems and put more children at risk for measles.
