From the RIVM report 'Vaccination level of the National Immunisation Programme of the Netherlands' (report year 2014) the strong commitment of Community Health Services (GGD’s) and child welfare centres once again becomes clear. Hence the average participation per vaccination for children lies between 92 and 99%. Ninety-five percent (95%) of infants born on or after 1 August, 2011, have been vaccinated against hepatitis B.
