| Abstract: | As a result of the Expanded Programme on Immunisation (EPn of WHO and UNICEF, 80% of the world's children are now immunised against six leading childhood diseases (measles, poliomyelites, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and tuberculosis), as announced by the Secretary General of the United Nations in October 1991. This opposes the figures published in 1974, where 50% of children aged under 1 year were immunised, when EPI was established (Gillen, 1991). |
