Brazil launches 2026 National Multivaccination Campaign

Brazil's Ministry of Health began the 2026 National Multivaccination Campaign on 3 August, a free, nationwide effort that will run until 1 September. The campaign aims to update vaccination cards for children and adolescents under 15 years and offers all vaccines in the National Immunization Calendar at Basic Health Units through the SUS. A national “Day D” mobilisation is scheduled for 22 August, when health units across the country will extend hours to increase access.

In the state of São Paulo, a measles resurgence prompted intensified vaccination after the 15th (and later 16th) case was confirmed in Guarulhos. Coverage for the triple‑viral (measles) vaccine in São Paulo stands at 77.5 % for the first dose and 65.5 % for the second, below the 95 % target. The campaign also includes a new second dose of the inactivated polio vaccine (VIP) for 4‑year‑old children in Paraná.

Municipalities from São Paulo to Campo Grande are conducting local drives, urging residents of all ages (6 months to 59 years) to present their vaccination cards for evaluation and receive any missing doses.
