The vaccination system in Cameroon, including the administration of follow-up doses, has been weakened, and herd immunity has been compromised. In September 2022, the government of Cameroon announced a strategy to promote immunization among zero-dose children [4]. In 2021, UNICEF reported that different regions of Cameroon face the challenge of low vaccination coverage for several reasons, including armed conflict, insecurity, and underfunding of national vaccination programs [1].

Cameroon approved the option B+ treatment strategy 2014 to prevent mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV in 2014 [24,26]. However, effevirenz has lately been replaced with dolutegravir. According to data of a trial study conducted in Cameroon, a dolutegravir-based regimen, which is a low-cost, generic, fixed-dose antiretroviral therapy (ART) combination containing tenofovir, lamivudine, and dolutegravir (TLD), is the preferred first-line treatment for patients with HIV-1 infection [25].
