MCV 5-dose implementation
WHO AFRO RITAG meeting report (July 2020)
In 2020, Africa’s Regional Immunization Technical Advisory Group (RITAG) recommended the use of measles-containing vaccine (MCV) 5-dose vials as part of a broad recovery strategy to raise coverage, reduce wastage, and avoid healthcare worker (HCW) reluctance to open 10-dose vials, especially where session sizes are small.
