In 2022, a survey on vaccine hesitancy in Africa found that 81 percent of participating parents strongly agreed with the statement that vaccines benefit their child’s health. However, more than 30 million African children under the age of five suffer from vaccine-preventable diseases each year, and out of those, half a million die. Despite this, 15 percent of parents reported that they somewhat agreed, which suggests a level of vaccine hesitancy.
