When Bangladesh launched its national immunisation program in 1979, a third of their 500,000 annual child deaths were from vaccine-preventable diseases. Today, the country is officially polio-free and has dramatically reduced child mortality. bit.ly/4kBJhQt

New Working Paper. LEGO movie summary of main result 😀 For more results see NBER Working Paper (nber.org/papers/w32899). Amazing team: @campos_mercade @meier_armando @Devin_G_Pope @f_h_schneider @ErikWengstrom
