Advance Public Health Through Vaccination

This special issue belongs to the section “Vaccines and Public Health“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Global health is continuously changing; thus, we are expecting to face various challenges in the form of epidemics and pandemics. Vaccines play an important role in mitigating these challenges. The worldwide effort to vaccinate people has demonstrated how immunization can prevent serious consequences, save lives, and protect communities. This Special Issue aims to investigate the evolving landscape of vaccination and explore solutions to achieve better vaccine uptake. We welcome original research, perspectives, and reviews that examine the latest advances in public health vaccination strategies, the role of vaccines in global health security, and ways to increase vaccination rates in vulnerable populations.
