Investigation of immunization status in children of floating population in Henan Province

OBJECTIVE: To understand the immunization status in children of floating population in Henan Province. METHODS: Floating people was divided into four types based on their geographical distribution and characteristics of settlement and randomly sampled from each type in 17 cities and prefectures of Henan Province. Immunization status was investigated in 2,141 children from floating population by household visits. RESULTS: Immunization coverage in children of floating population was less than 60% and coverage of complete immunization with four kinds of vaccine was only 32%, far lower than that in local children. Coverage for children in large-size bazaars and construction sites and from peddlers' families was the lowest, 20.8% and 25.1%, respectively, which indicated that immunization for children in floating population had restricted the in-depth development of Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) in Henan Province. The main reasons for that were floating population had no stable residence and job. The key problems in immunization for floating population at present were their unawareness of EPI, lack of initiative and certain defects in EPI service existed in some areas. CONCLUSION: It is necessary to strengthen publicity for immunization, to improve the mode of EPI service and to enhance the management in immunization for floating population.
