Ati ''Inkingo ni kimwe mu bintu by'ingenzi byavumbuwe mu mateka, bigatuma indwara zahoraga ziteye ubwoba zishobora kwirindwa.'
Iyi raporo igaragaza ko nk'Urukingo rw'Iseru rwonyine rwarokoye 60% by'abakingiwe muri icyo gihe cy'imyaka 50, kuko rugira uruhare mu guha abana ubudahangarwa bw'umubiri. Gukingira abana kandi bagahabwa n'izindi nkingo zirimo urw'Indwara ya Diphtheria ifata ubuhumekero, urw'imbasa n'igituntu, byarokoye ubuzima bw'abana 40% ku Isi yose ndetse na 50% muri Afurika, n'ubundi mu myaka 50 ishize.

Ni mu gihe muri iyo myaka himakajwe Porogaramu yiswe 'Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI)' yo gutanga inkingo ku bana benshi.
Iyo gahunda yatangijwe na OMS mu 1974 hagikingirwa abana bari munsi ya 5% ku Isi yose, ariko ubu OMS yishimira ko nibura abana 84% ku Isi yose bahabwa 'dose' eshatu z'inkingo za Diphtheria, Tetanus na Pertussis.
