vaccine coverage

Population protection percentage

Vaccine coverage is the proportion of a population that has received a particular vaccine, typically expressed as a percentage.

Public health officials track vaccine coverage to assess immunity levels and predict disease outbreaks: Measles vaccine coverage dropped below 90% in several counties.

High coverage is necessary for herd immunity to protect those who cannot be vaccinated.
