Free newborn vaccines

What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“Provide Rotavirus, Meningococcal, Hepatitis B and Pneumococcal vaccines to newborns free of cost.”
Our Assessment
Routine immunisation is active in Uttarakhand, and the national UIP/U-WIN framework provides age-appropriate vaccines free of cost to pregnant women and children. Rotavirus, Hepatitis B and Pneumococcal vaccination are part of routine immunisation coverage, but I did not verify free universal Meningococcal vaccination for newborns under the government schedule. This is partial because three named vaccine commitments are covered but the fourth remains unverified. Budget status: UIP funding exists.
