The pandemic has had A LOT of negative consequences. Contributing to the lowest routine vaccination rates in 30 years is one of them.
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted routine vaccines by disrupting their delivery, shifting resources, as well as fueling the spread of misinformation about vaccines.
As a result, it is estimated that 80 million children, including Canadians, will miss life-saving vaccinations. Experts fear that this could lead to outbreaks of previously eliminated diseases, which would dramatically increase the pressure applied on our already strained health systems.
Fortunately, there is a simple thing you can do to help! Make sure your family is up to date on their routine vaccines.
