💨 Abstract

The head of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, has expressed concern over potential funding cuts from the US government, which may result in over 1 million preventable deaths. Gavi is seeking to secure the $300 million approved by Congress for this year and long-term funding. The loss of US support is estimated to deny routine vaccinations to 75 million children in the next five years, potentially causing more than 1.2 million child deaths.
