Incomplete vaccination for conjugated meningococcal C and hepatitis B at municipal, state and federal level: 2015 a 2019

Brazil has the National Immunization Program for disease prevention that offers nineteen vaccines, yet it is known that vaccination coverage according to age is not always reached. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the vaccination coverage in the municipality of Sinop, in the Mato Grosso state and in the Brazil for meningococcal C conjugate vaccines and Hepatitis B in the period from 2015 to 2019. Method: This is a descriptive, retrospective and cross-sectional study, with data available in the Information System of the National Immunization Program. Results: Vaccination coverage for mingococcal C in children under one year in Sinop was above the target in 2015 and 2018, Mato Grosso was above only in 2015, for the booster dose only Sinop was above the target in 2016. Coverage for hepatitis B in children under 30 days of life demonstrated that Sinop had coverage above the state of Mato Grosso, which in turn was above Brazil. For children under 1 year old, only in 2016 and 2019 the state presented greater vaccination coverage at the expense of Sinop and Brazil. Conclusion: The results demonstrate that there is hesitation on the part of the population regarding vaccination, being greater in vaccines such as meningococcal C. Strengthening childcare is the key to improving the panorama of vaccine coverage.
