Religious affiliation and immunization coverage in 15 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa

This article appeared in Science Direct in January 2020. Although religious affiliation has been identified as a potential barrier to immunization in some African countries, there are no systematic multi-country analyses, including within-country variability, on this issue. The authors investigated whether immunization varied according to religious affiliation and sex of the child in sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries.
