This statistic presents the results of a survey on perceived percentage of infants who receive all the WTO recommended vaccinations in Japan as of October 2018. According to data published by Ipsos, Japanese respondents underestimated the coverage of vaccinations of infants in Japan. On average, the respondents thought that around 72 out of every 100 Japanese infants under 12 months have had all the recommended vaccines for diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, polio, and measles, when the actual infant vaccination coverage was 99 percent in Japan.
