Objective. This analysis aimed to identify the underlying causes of gaps in routine immunization coverage observed during the COVID-19 pandemic recovery phase by applying the open-source Vaccination Coverage Quality Indicators package in R (vcqiR), addressing limitations in Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS) that often omit quality metrics based on detailed vaccination date analysis. 

Objective: To estimate the prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in men who have sex with men (MSM) in Belize and identify behavioral and structural factors associated with infection. 

Objective. To identify demographic, occupational, exposure, clinical, and laboratory factors independently associated with diagnostic confirmation of hantavirus infection by RT-PCR or IgM among patients with suspected hantavirus pulmonary syndrome evaluated in Río Negro and Neuquén, Argentina. 

Objective. To describe compliance with the interventions defined as drivers of the HEARTS-based integrated model for noncommunicable disease control in Peru. 

17 JUNE 2026, WASHINGTON, D.C. — More than 184 000 suspected measles/rubella cases have been reported worldwide in 2026, reflecting widespread transmission across all WHO regions. In the Americas Region, confirmed cases have reached 20 521 by EW 20 -- with 25 deaths -- representing a four-fold increase from the number reported in the same period in 2025. Against this backdrop, mass gatherings and cross-border travel act as amplifiers of transmission, particularly in populations with suboptimal vaccination coverage.
