Statista Dossier on vaccination in France
In France, a clear vaccination strategy protects the population from diseases that could cause serious health problems. Among children born from January 1, 2018, the number of mandatory vaccines increased from three to eleven in metropolitan France: Diphtheria, Tetanus, Poliomyelitis, Pertussis, Hemophilus B, Hepatitis B, Meningitis, Pneumococcus, Mumps, Measles, and Rubella. In addition to these mandatory vaccines, the French health authorities recommend four vaccines depending on risk factors: tuberculosis, influenza, typhoid, and HPV. However, since the COVID-19 outbreak, France launched a coronavirus vaccine campaign in late-December 2020.
This dossier provides up-to-date data on the immunization rates across France for mandatory, recommended, and COVID-19 vaccines. In addition, key figures on the global vaccine market are included with a chapter on SANOFI, the French leading vaccine company.
According to the World Health Organization, vaccine hesitancy is one of the biggest threats to global health in the future. This dossier thus provides insight into the attitudes of French people towards vaccination. Indeed, France regularly stands out when it comes to vaccine hesitancy, especially with its anti-vaccination movement.
