Democratic People's Republic of Korea

Immunization spending

In 2001, the pre-GAVI Fund year, DPR Korea spent $5.0 million on programme-specific expenditures for routine immunization services and an additional $0.3 million on supplemental immunization activities. The programme-specific spending on routine immunization service equated to about $18.6 per DTP3 vaccinated child or $0.22 per capita. Programme-specific spending on routine immunization decreased slightly by 8% in 2003, the first year of GAVI Fund support, due to a reduction in vaccine wastage.
