The Universal Immunisation Programme (UIP) was rolled out in India in 1985, extending the Expanded Programme for Immunisation (EPI), which had attempted to provide recommended vaccines against tuberculosis, polio and other diseases for all Indian children. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare was responsible for the programme, with significant support from the international community. The programme has achieved some advances in the coverage of immunisation in India, but has faced important management challenges and has fallen short of the 'for all children' coverage it had intended. Marsen Jules Nostalgia Rapidshare. The challenge At the time of India’s independence in 1947, the country was reporting the largest number of smallpox cases in the world. Tuberculosis (TB) was also perceived as a major cause of morbidity and mortality. In May 1948, the Government of India (GoI) issued a press note stating that TB was reaching 'epidemic proportions' and decided to introduce BCG (Bacillus Calmette Guerin) vaccination on a limited scale and strict supervision to control the disease.

Although the efficacy of the vaccine in preventing pulmonary TB was in question, it was the only protective measure available at the time. Despite becoming a leading producer and exporter of vaccines, India was home to one-third of the world’s unimmunised children, and before the 1990s fewer than half of the children in the country were vaccinated.

There were several causes of this vaccine deficit: • Insufficient government investment; • A focus on polio eradication at the expense of other immunisations; • Low demand caused by poor education of the population on the topic; • The presence of anti-vaccine advocates. The lack of a quality supply chain and efficient logistics system also led to the waste of vaccines. Over 25% of the vaccines went to waste before reaching doctors and their patients, while others lost their efficacy by the time they were administered, according to reports.
