Timely and accurate measurement of vaccination coverage is required to evaluate the success of vaccine programmes as well as identifying susceptible groups in order to better control disease. Estimating coverage requires knowledge of how many people are eligible for vaccination, and how many have received the vaccine. Achieving this presents a number of challenges in both high and low income settings. Investing in systems that record vaccination coverage better, as an integral part of vaccine strategies, will be a step towards better control of vaccine-preventable diseases.
为评估疫苗计划的成效以及确定易感人群以更好地控制疾病，需要及时、准确地测量疫苗接种覆盖率。估计覆盖率需要了解有多少人符合接种条件以及有多少人已接种疫苗。在高收入和低收入环境中实现这一点都面临许多挑战。投资建立能更好记录疫苗接种覆盖率的系统，作为疫苗战略的一个组成部分，将朝着更好地控制疫苗可预防疾病迈出一步。
