In summary, tremendous advances have been made over the past 15 years toward the development of effective national immunization programs throughout the world. Immunization levels among children in the developing world have risen dramatically, and in some instances, now equal or exceed levels in industrialized nations. There is no room for complacency, however, because millions of children remain incompletely immunized and many die each year from measles, pertussis, and neonatal tetanus. Immunization activities need to be intensified, accelerated, and sustained within the context of the primary health care system. Expansion of immunization programs to include additional vaccines and other simple health interventions will yield further benefits in the years ahead.
总之，在过去15年里，全球在制定有效的国家免疫规划方面取得了巨大进展。发展中世界儿童的免疫接种水平大幅提高，在某些情况下，现已达到或超过工业化国家的水平。然而，我们不能自满，因为仍有数以百万计的儿童免疫接种不完全，每年有许多儿童死于麻疹、百日咳和新生儿破伤风。需要在初级卫生保健系统的背景下加强、加速并持续开展免疫活动。在未来几年，扩大免疫规划以纳入更多疫苗和其他简单的健康干预措施将带来更多益处。
