  • In the last 50 years alone, vaccines have saved 154 million lives. That’s 6 people every minute, for five decades. But there are still millions of children who receive zero doses of vaccines - 1 in 3 of these children currently live in middle-income countries. What should be done to ensure these children get the vaccines they need? And to ensure no child is left behind.

    Today IA2030 has launched an in-depth review on increasing immunization in middle-income countries that highlights four key actions needed:

    1 – Middle-income countries need to sustain or increase financing of vaccines depending on context: vaccines need to be considered part of the package of essential health services.
    2 – Vaccines can cost 10x more in middle-income countries than GAVI eligible countries: vaccines suppliers must ensure improved availability and affordability of vaccines for middle-income countries, and countries should consider procuring vaccines from diverse manufacturing bases.
    3 – Often due to...

    3 – Often due to lagging introductions, coverage of newer vaccines in middle-income countries is much lower than IA2030 targets: strong evidence-based decision-making is needed to support how vaccines are prioritized and delivered.
    4 – Middle-income countries have high and growing internal inequities in vaccine coverage: we need to create stronger demand for vaccines in communities and tailor vaccine outreach to local contexts.

  • Tonight there will be a special side session titled Using your Cold Chain Temperature Data to Make Refrigerators Work. During this session, we will dig into the details of cold chain equipment (CCE) temperature data. With all of the temperature data now available through remote temperature monitoring devices (RTMDs) and 30DTRs, we have an opportunity to bring together the different areas of expertise to better understand what the temperature data is telling us about CCE maintenance in a practical way. And we need your help to do this. Tonight, October 17, at 18:30 in Breakout Room #2 (across from the Innovations Cafes).
