I’ve heard many a Twitter-X Spaces ideas where we should have visibility on all the countries vaccine schedules. I went onto the WHO website, poked around, downloaded every country they had one by one and made this dashboard.
I’ve been hearing people say my website has been getting blocked by spam and virus filters for having dangerous content, if you are having trouble accessing my dashboards through vaersaware.com, then go direct to Tableau Public here.:

Think of this article as more of a “how to” tutorial on navigating the dashboard. Let me start by saying the logos on the banner are all hyperactive. 1) The WHO logo launches to the source data location. 2) Substack will bring you back to this article. 3) vaersaware logo will take you back to all dashboards. 3) Notes button will take you to additional info about acronyms and abbreviations, etc…
You can use the drop down filters on the left or you can simply click a bar on the graph to begin drilling into the data.
Here is example of selecting only the “MMR” by clicking on the histogram bar (the graph). Who knew most of Africa and India do not have MMR on their list? Disclaimer: this data is straight from the WHO and it’s “recommendations”, I don’t know how accurate or realistic this is. There is also no 2023 vax schedule data in the system yet but WHO says they update annually during Q1 and Q2, so it seems like 2023 updates should be coming in anytime now.
Here is a look on this African country named Congo and Democratic Republic of the Congo:
I’ll use Congo to point out some curious observations. First the two Congos contain ~108M inhabitants in about 2.6 million Km². I’ll assume it’s surrounded by a lot of jungle and might be considered third world by some peoples definition. However, Congo only has 10 vaccines on their schedule? The USA has 32 vaccines on the recommended schedule. Don’t we have indoor plumbing, electricity, drinking water and stuff like that? Why do we have so many more vaccines than the Congo? More news to me is Vitamin A supplements is a vaccine in the Congo!? Don’t ask me, ask the WHO what they are telling those Africans. This all seems pretty shady, and I don’t subscribe to any vaccines on principal alone.
The bottom section of this dashboard contains the data for the age of administration, the target population, and the comments section, if any.
Most acronyms and abbreviations are self explanatory, but this is where the “notes” button will come in handy.
Here is an example looking at a few countries at a time (USA, NZ, Philippines):
I don’t know about you, but I think the USA is getting poisoned with all these vaccines. I think this dashboard maybe the first of it’s kind for all the regular people. Surely someone could have done a dashboard for us before? If you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself! Please share like crazy. God Bless.
Disclaimer: Greenland, Kosovo, Western Sudan, French Guinea and couple tiny tiny islands are missing from WHO.

Wowza!! Great Info. 12 for Congo, very interesting!!
Brilliant , I want to thank you again for this massive tool. You have a special way of being able to work within all the restrictions and produce data and ideas worth a gold medal
