An evaluation of the early impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on Zambia’s routine immunization program
Implications of the COVID-19 pandemic for both populations and healthcare systems are vast. In addition to morbidity and mortality from COVID-19, the pandemic also disrupted local health systems, including reductions or delays in routine vaccination services and catch-up vaccination campaigns. These disruptions could lead to outbreaks of other infectious diseases that result in an additional burden of disease and strain on the healthcare system. …
Impact of mobile phone delivered reminders and unconditional incentives on measles-containing vaccine timeliness and coverage
INTRODUCTION: Short message service (SMS) reminders coupled with a small monetary incentive conditioned on prompt vaccination have been shown to improve first-dose measles-containing vaccine (MCV1) uptake. We assessed whether SMS reminders and unconditional monetary incentives-more amenable to programmatic implementation-can improve MCV1 uptake in Kenya. METHODS: Caregivers of eligible infants aged 6-8 months were enrolled into an individually ra…
Measles vaccination coverage estimates from surveys, clinic records, and immune markers in oral fluid and blood
Measles IgG antibodies in OF was not a suitable immune marker for monitoring measles vaccination coverage in this setting. Because agreement between conventional MCV1 indicators was mediocre, immune marker surveillance with blood samples could be used to validate conventional MCV1 indicators and generate adjusted results that can be compared across indicators
