Material and Methods: This study is a descriptive and analytical evaluation regarding both BCG vaccine acquisition and coverage as reported by official sources over a 16-year period (2006\u20132021). Results: We found that vaccine acquisition, dose application and coverage are highly variable each year. Coverage is 90% or higher, except for the 2017\u20132020 period. Discussion: According to our calculations, between 3,917,616 and 4,961,868 individuals did not receive the BCG vaccine. Coverage was lower than 90% during the last 4 years, whereas this value decreased to 21% in 2020. Except for the last 5 years, the amount of acquired doses surpassed the demand thus causing a considerable vaccine wastage. Conclusions: BCG vaccine coverage is low and many individuals remain unprotected. The access to this vaccine is difficult and the number of newly reported cases of tuberculosis have increased during the last years. Thus, it is necessary to establish vaccination campaigns aimed protect the population and also to deploy a nominal system to control coverage, acquisitions, and target population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/vaccines11020337","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,2]],"date-time":"2023-02-02T05:44:45Z","timestamp":1675316685000},"page":"337","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Report of 16 Years of the BCG Vaccine under the Expanded Program on Immunizations in Mexico (2006\u20132021)"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8489-4221","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rodrigo","family":"Romero-Feregrino","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Asociaci\u00f3n Mexicana de Vacunolog\u00eda, Mexico City 06760, Mexico"},{"name":"Instituto Para el Desarrollo Integral de la Salud (IDISA), Mexico City 06700, Mexico"},{"name":"Employer Sector CONCAMIN, Technical Council, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS), Mexico City 06600, Mexico"},{"name":"Saint Luke School of Medicine, Mexico City 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Raul","family":"Romero-Cabello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Asociaci\u00f3n Mexicana de Vacunolog\u00eda, Mexico City 06760, Mexico"},{"name":"Instituto Para el Desarrollo Integral de la Salud (IDISA), Mexico City 06700, Mexico"},{"name":"Saint Luke School of Medicine, Mexico City 11000, Mexico"},{"name":"Department of Infectology, Hospital General de M\u00e9xico, Mexico City 06720, Mexico"},{"name":"Department of Microbiology and Parasitology, Faculty of Medicine, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico (UNAM), Mexico City 04360, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mario Alfredo","family":"Rodr\u00edguez-Le\u00f3n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Asociaci\u00f3n Mexicana de Vacunolog\u00eda, Mexico City 06760, Mexico"},{"name":"Instituto Para el Desarrollo Integral de la Salud (IDISA), Mexico City 06700, Mexico"},{"name":"Medical Surgeon Career, Faculty of Higher Studies Zaragoza, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico (UNAM), Mexico City 09230, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1837-7546","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ra\u00fal","family":"Romero-Feregrino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Asociaci\u00f3n Mexicana de Vacunolog\u00eda, Mexico City 06760, Mexico"},{"name":"Instituto Para el Desarrollo Integral de la Salud (IDISA), Mexico City 06700, Mexico"},{"name":"Saint Luke School of Medicine, Mexico City 11000, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Berenice","family":"Mu\u00f1oz-Cordero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Asociaci\u00f3n Mexicana de Vacunolog\u00eda, Mexico City 06760, Mexico"},{"name":"Instituto Para el Desarrollo Integral de la Salud (IDISA), Mexico City 06700, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julieta Isabel","family":"Aguilar-Feregrino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Para el Desarrollo Integral de la Salud (IDISA), Mexico City 06700, Mexico"},{"name":"Tecnol\u00f3gico de Monterrey, Mexico City 14380, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"World Health Organization (2018).
