WHO SAGE Roadmap For Prioritizing Uses Of COVID-19 Vaccines In The Context Of Limited Supply

World Health Organization WHO (2021) C_WHO

an approach to inform planning and subsequent recommendations based on epidemiological setting and vaccine supply scenarios, first issued 20 October 2020, latest update 16 July 2021 Given the urgency and wide-ranging effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, SAGE has developed an approach to help inform deliberation around the range of recommendations that may be appropriate under different epidemiologic and vaccine supply conditions. To assist in developing recommendations for use of vaccines against COVID-19, SAGE proposes a Roadmap for Prioritizing Uses of COVID-19 Vaccines that considers priority populations for vaccination based on epidemiologic setting and vaccine supply scenarios

The purpose of this Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is to describe the detailed process on how to manage discarded COVID-19 vaccine vials and associated waste after COVID-19 vaccination activities end. The SOP provides clear instructions on how to perform the appropriate treatment and safe disposal of these wastes to minimize any associated health risk with consideration to local context

How to manage COVID-19 vaccines without VVM at vaccination service points?

World Health Organization WHO (2021) C_WHO

COVID-19 vaccines must be stored, transported and handled under appropriate conditions. This includes maintaining cold chain conditions according to the emergency use listing (EUL) recommendation and as specified in the product insert. Every time a vaccine is exposed to improper conditions such as over exposure to heat, cold or light, its potency is reduced. This loss is cumulative and irreversible. Once lost, vaccine potency cannot be restored. The vaccine vial monitor or VVM is a reliable indicator that registers whether the cumulative heat exposure has reached a point when the vaccine can no longer be use

“Guide to facilitate the implementation of the WHO/UNICEF “Guidance on developing a national deployment and vaccination plan for COVID-19 vaccines” for Africa t contains action-oriented lists of critical topics to address and checklists tailored to the context of African Union Member States. The contents of this guide aim to guide the development of one comprehensive national deployment and vaccination plan, as proposed and outlined by the guidance – and underlines the need for countries to develop their vaccination plans. This guide is not meant as a tool to assess deployment readiness. The recommendation to Member States is to use the VIRAT/VRAF 2.0 tool for that, which builds on the COVAX Vaccine Introduction Readiness Assessment Tool (VIRAT) and the World Bank’s Vaccine Readiness Assessment Framework (VRAF)
