    Abstract

    Immunization is a global health and development success story, saving millions of lives every year. Vaccines reduce risk of getting a disease by working with body’s natural defences to build protection. Immunization currently prevents 3.5-5 million deaths every year from diseases like diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, influenza and measles. An adverse event following immunization (AEFI) is a matter of concern and its detection at right time followed by corrective measures wherever possible will further help build the faith of people in vaccination and also eliminate the preventable AEFIs.
