Peru childhood vaccination coverage below 65%, measles second dose at 45.1%

Peru's national childhood vaccination coverage remains below 65% with under four months left in the year, and the second measles-mumps-rubella dose reaches only 45.1%. In Ucayali, Loreto, and Madre de Dios, coverage for the second MMR dose is below 38%, indicating persistent regional gaps. This raises measles outbreak risk and underscores a public-health vulnerability.
