Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Vaccines are a highly effective public health measure for promoting population health. However, the COVID-19 pandemic, monkeypox, and other global public health emergencies have highlighted serious global inequality in the development and accessibility of vaccines, particularly in disadvantaged settings. It is essential to address these issues by understanding the current situation, analyzing its reasons, and exploring potential solutions.
We invite original research articles and reviews on a wide range of topics related to global vaccine equity issues, including routine and emergency vaccines for all age groups. This includes, but is not limited to, vaccine hesitancy, vaccination promotion interventions, relevant economic evaluations, and vaccination for vulnerable populations. We are eagerly looking forward to receiving your contributions.
