Immunization status and its determinants among children aged 12–23 months at community health centers in Mogadishu, Somalia: a cross-sectional study

Our findings revealed that 53% of children were fully vaccinated, with higher household income and regular antenatal care visits associated with increased vaccination rates. Future research should focus on interventions to improve maternal health services and increase access to antenatal care (ANC) to raise vaccination rates in Somalia. Further investigation should explore barriers to vaccination in low-income areas and innovative community engagement strategies.
