Declining vaccination rates among nine- and ten-year-olds in New West Amsterdam have underscored the need for a targeted solution, as this area records some of the lowest coverage in the region, particularly for HPV, MMR, and DTP (Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis) vaccines. Many families face practical barriers that make vaccination challenging, including long travel distances, limited time due to work commitments, and unfamiliar vaccination locations.
