Vaccination is a crucial tool for the primary prevention of infectious diseases. Thanks to the widespread of vaccinations it has been possible to eradicate very serious diseases. Unfortunately, vaccination coverage in Italy has been decreasing starting from 2015, getting worse during COVID-19. Nowadays, very few Italian regions have achieved the goal of 95% coverage. In this study we present a vaccination recovery model proposed by Local Health Department "Napoli 3 Sud" in Campania. An evaluation of the vaccination coverage from January 2019 to December 2021 of the 13 Districts of the Local Health Department "Napoli 3 Sud" in Campania was carried out, by extraction from the regional computerized platform "GE.VA" Regional Vaccine Registry and from Sinfonia Vaccini Soresa platform. Vaccination coverage of the Local Health Department "Napoli 3 Sud" for the cohorts of newborns in the year 2019-2021 improved to an average of 96.29% for Pneumococco, of 84.78% for Meningococcal, of 94.3% for Measles, Mumps and Rubella, 91.4% for chickenpox. This study highlights how the collaboration between family pediatricians and the Local Health Department, with the help of a regional computerized platform GE.VA, is effective in improving vaccination coverage.

Introduction: COVID-19 infects minority groups with comorbidities at higher rates than whites. In addition, children are at risk of vaccine hesitancy based on parents' acceptance and due to disparity. About twenty percent of workers would get vaccinated, especially if required by work.

Measles is a highly infectious, notifiable, viral disease that is commonly contracted in childhood and associated with a characteristic rash. Most children and young people who contract measles make a full recovery, but measles infection is associated with rare but serious complications in vulnerable groups, such young infants, immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women. Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent measles infection, but uptake of the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine in the UK has fallen short of the vaccine coverage required to provide herd immunity and prevent measles outbreaks.

Background/objectives: The importance of pro-equity strategies in addressing disadvantages that people and communities face due to their gender, migration status, ethnicity, disability, and place of residence is increasingly being recognised, but analysis of empirical evidence on how they improve vaccination in these priority groups is limited. This systematic review aims to fill this gap.
Methods: Standard evidence synthesis methods were employed, with searches conducted in four major bibliographic databases in March 2025.
