ABSTRACT
Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) or the coronavirus disease caused by
the SARS-CoV-2 virus has become a concern around the world, especially in Indonesia. As
of January 31, 2021, the total cases of COVID-19 infection in the world reached 103
million with 2.22 million cases. The COVID-19 pandemic threatened to have an impact on
health progress and particularly on children's development due to the obstruction of
immunization services as a national program. Objective: This study aims to assess the
impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on child immunization services. Methods: The method
used was a narrative literature review conducted by synthesizing and analyzing 4 search
engines including ProQuest, ScienceDirect, Pubmed, and SpringerLink. The search for this
manuscript found 22 texts that matched the specified topic, namely the impact of the
presence of COVID-19 on immunization services in children, searched for the keywords
immunization, COVID-19, immunization service, and child. Results: The COVID-19
pandemic has an impact on changes in immunization services for children who have
become obstructed, reduced service coverage, perceptions of parents reflecting the high
demand for immunization, and an impact on health status, namely by carrying out routine
immunizations resulting in trained immunity and generating immunity. Conclusion:
COVID-19 has a special impact on child immunization services. Immunization services must
continue to run and carry out according to applicable standards following local
government policies by taking into account the principles and guidelines given.
Collaboration between the government, the community, non-governmental organizations,
and health professionals are needed to prevent a double burden during the COVID-19
pandemic.
