This study seeks to assess the determinants of Childhood Routine Immunization coverage in Sokoto State. Findings from the research study indicates that routine immunization coverage is still very low in Sokoto State when compared with the national target of 80% coverage (RI Strategic Plan 2013-2015). Also, this research discovered that about half of the children in Sokoto State, Nigeria are partially or not immunized at all. This clearly indicates that about half of children born in Sokoto State have not received pentavalent vaccine by the time they reach their first birthday. The challenges of immunization coverage in Sokoto State is attributed to Mothers/Caregivers inability to take their child to the health facility, unaware of immunization schedule, unaware of immunization need, absence of vaccinators, forgetfulness, no need felt, fear of AEFI, unaware of place and time, no faith/belief in immunization, lack of vaccines at the health facilities. The study recommends that government should make an extra effort to sensitize caregivers and counseled them on the significance of taking their children to health facilities for vaccination.

A summary of secondary data was obtained at the website of the Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) and the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA) on the 14 and 15 of April 2021. A simple descriptive analysis was conducted on the data. The research findings revealed that a total number of 17,016 laboratory confirmed cases were reported; 747,800 AstraZeneca Vaccines were distributed, a total number of 221,829 people were vaccinated with the first dose of the vaccine as of 15 of April 2021. Out of the 17,016 laboratories’ confirmed cases, more than half (53%) were recorded from Kaduna state while less than 1% were reported in Zamfara state. The reason for such several confirmed cases in Kaduna state was partly due to the ...
