India has the highest number of under-vaccinated or unvaccinated children worldwide at 3.5 million, an increase of 1.4 million from 2019, amid the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak, UNICEF said. 

It also noted that over 3 million of “Zero-dose children” in 2020 lived in India. 

At nearly 4.4 million, South Asia recorded the highest number of children having failed to receive any routine vaccination in the past ten years, in 2020. 

“More than 3 million of these “Zero-dose children” in 2020 lived in India,” the United Nations Children ‘s Emergency Fund, (UNICEF) said in a statement. 

Globally, UNICEF said the data shows that just 10 countries account for 62 per cent of all under- or unvaccinated children globally.
