Description
Summary:The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic had a direct impediment to the provision of critical health services worldwide, and one of the most affected areas was routine immunisation programmes. This caused a significant drop in child immunisation rates, especially in the early stages of the pandemic. This research aimed to investigate the socio-demographic predictors of the continued persistence of routine immunisation services in Rwanda during the COVID-19 pandemic.
