Routine Immunisation Services Amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic: A webinar series

We are excited to announce the dates of our webinar series taking stock on Routine Immunisation Services amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic.

When the rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 brought the world to a standstill in 2020, immunisation programmes worldwide were disrupted like almost every other health programme. The disruption was mainly due to the diversion of healthcare resources to COVID-19 as well as mobility restrictions stopping people from accessing healthcare or health workers reaching out to marginalized populations.

After over two years of the pandemic and ongoing efforts to restore and maintain immunisation programmes, what are the key lessons that we have learned? Could the integration of immunisation and other essential services be an avenue to reach missed communities? What has been the impact of the pandemic on financing for immunisation and primary health care services?

Please save these dates and times in your calendars to discuss with experts in country immunisation programmes, government and civil society organization representatives, and healthcare workers:

These webinars are hosted by the Gavi CSO Steering Committee in partnership with RESULTS UK, Save the Children, USAID’s Momentum Country and Global Leadership Project/International Vaccine Access Center, UNICEF and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance.

The first webinar of this series will be about “The Delivery of Routine Immunisation Services Amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic” and will take place on Tuesday, 12 April 2022 between 15:00 and 16:30 CET.
