Nepal: Japanese Encephalitis

Gavi supports JE catch-up campaigns and co-finances the vaccine for routine immunisation. In 2014, Gavi invited countries to apply for support to introduce the Japanese encephalitis (JE) vaccine. The first Gavi-funded JE vaccine campaign started in Lao People’s Democratic Republic in 2015, with Nepal and Cambodia following suit in 2016. Myanmar conducted a nationwide campaign targeting children 9 months–15 years in 2017 with introduction into routine nationwide in 2018, and Bali in Indonesia conducted the islandwide campaign in 2018 with introduction into routine in the same year.
