High vaccine prices, import restrictions, logistical issues, and a challenging vaccination schedule are some of the reasons why many people - particularly children - miss out on being fully vaccinated against a host of dangerous diseases. As a result, 1.5 million children die each year from vaccine-preventable diseases. MSF teams vaccinate millions of people every year, either as part of routine vaccination, or in response to an outbreak of disease.
