Guiding principles for recovering, building resiliency, and strengthening of immunization in 2022 and beyond [1]

[]

Date: 2022-12-27  

Overview

In November 2020, WHO published guiding principles on immunization activities during the COVID-19 pandemic and other times of severe disruption. This document of guiding principles complements the 2020 document and similarly incorporates the IA2030 principles of being people-centred, country-owned, partnership-based and data-guided. These guiding principles intend to support countries in their decision-making and actions regarding immunization recovery, resiliency, and strengthening of immunization programmes in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, including COVID-19 vaccination introduction and scale-up, and support efforts toward pandemic preparedness and building global health security.

Countries are encouraged to urgently close immunity gaps and recover immunization services while capitalizing on the opportunities from the pandemic response and COVID-19 vaccine roll-out to strengthen routine immunization services and increase resiliency in primary health care.
