By 2019, Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance had helped vaccinate more than 760 million children and prevent 13 million deaths.

The test is whether Gavi's own reported cumulative figures, as of the end of 2019 or the latest available by 2020-02-10, show more than 760 million children vaccinated (immunised) with Gavi support and about 13 million future deaths averted since Gavi was founded in 2000. True: Gavi's official figures (or a formal correction of them) show at least 760 million children and roughly 13 million deaths averted (12.5–13.5 million). Mostly true: one figure matches and the other is slightly off (children 720–760 million, or deaths 12–12.5 or 13.5–14 million), or the figures apply to a slightly different cut-off year. Mixed: one figure is broadly supported and the other is clearly wrong. Mostly false: both figures are clearly off but of the right order, or a figure describes something else (e.g. doses, or projections rather than achieved results). False: Gavi's records show figures far from both (more than 15% off each), or no such cumulative attribution to Gavi.

Set before the research began.

1. E1 Annual Progress Report 2019 Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance

   “Since Gavi was established in 2000, its mission to save lives, reduce poverty and protect the world against the threat of epidemics has helped vaccinate more than 822 million children in 73 countries through the end of 2019 – preventing more than 14 million future deaths.”

Gavi's end-2019 report supports the children figure (more than 822 million) but gives more than 14 million future deaths prevented [E1]. That is at or beyond the edge of the mostly-true band in the criteria, and no evidence shows the claim's figures came from a different cut-off year. The evidence therefore does not clearly settle the claim at the stated verdict.
