Gavi has supported the global oral cholera vaccine stockpile since 2014 Oral cholera vaccine stockpile The global oral cholera vaccine (OCV) stockpile was founded in mid-2013 by five donors. In 2013, the Gavi Board approved support for the stockpile as part of our Vaccine Investment Strategy. Our contribution of over US$ 110 million for the 2014–2018 period aims to increase access to OCV during emergencies and in countries that regularly experience cholera outbreaks.

GAVI’s support for new vaccines presents an opportunity for countries to not only implement vaccines that protect against diseases causing substantial morbidity and/or mortality, but also to build upon the vaccine investments in order to increase immunisation coverage rates, and strengthen routine immunisation services and primary health care systems. Pneumococcal vaccines can protect children from Streptococcus pneumoniae, which is the most common cause of severe pneumonia among children living in the developing world, and can also causes meningitis and sepsis. In line with WHO recommendations, GAVI support for pneumococcal vaccines is for routine infant immunisation. Two pneumococcal conjugate vaccines are currently available with GAVI support: a 10-valent (PCV10) and a 13-valent (PCV13).

GAVI helps protect children in eligible countries against measles by providing support for a second dose of measles-containing vaccine, to be introduced into the routine immunisation programme. Providing a second opportunity for measles vaccination is a very powerful tool to reach children who missed the first dose and to produce immunity in a number of persons who failed to develop measles immunity after the first dose. Support for the measles vaccine and associated injection safety materials is for a period of five years.

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.

Injected medicines are commonly used in healthcare settings for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of various illnesses. Unsafe injection practices put patients and healthcare providers at risk of infectious and non-infectious adverse events and have been associated with a wide variety of procedures and settings. This harm is preventable. Safe injection practices are part of Standard Precautions and are aimed at maintaining basic levels of patient safety and provider protections. As defined by the World Health Organization, a safe injection does not harm the recipient, does not expose the provider to any avoidable risks and does not result in waste that is dangerous for the community

The Vaccine Alliance supported one of the fastest roll-outs in the history of vaccination: the introduction of at least one dose of IPV into the routine immunisation schedules of Gavi-supported countries, which was achieved in April 2019, less than five years after the initial launch. Countries introducing IPV received a one-time cash grant from Gavi, funded by GPEI, to support some of the additional activity costs related to introducing the new vaccine. These activities may include health worker training, social mobilisation, micro-planning, expansion or rehabilitation of cold chain equipment, printing of materials (such as immunisation cards), technical assistance and modifications to the surveillance systems.

In line with a 2009 WHO position paper on cervical cancer recommending that routine human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination be included in national immunisation programmes, GAVI provides support to eligible countries for HPV vaccines that protect against types 16 and 18, responsible for causing about 70% of cervical cancer cases. The form of support provided by GAVI depends on the level of demonstrated ability in a country to deliver vaccines to young adolescent girls. Countries that have demonstrated the ability may apply for GAVI support for nationwide introduction of HPV vaccines.

One of GAVI’s strategic goals is to “contribute to strengthening the capacity of integrated health systems to deliver immunisation”. The objective of GAVI cash support is to address system bottlenecks to achieve better immunisation outcomes, including coverage and equity. The GAVI approach is results oriented. The objective of GAVI support for Health Systems Strengthening (HSS) is to address system bottlenecks to achieve better immunisation outcomes, including coverage and equity. As such, it is necessary for applications for HSS support by countries to be based on a strong bottleneck and gap analysis, and present a clear results chain demonstrating the link between proposed activities and improved immunisation outcomes. GAVI’s approach intends to deliver and document results. From 2013, the HSS cash-based funding stream replaces the previous support to Immunisation Services Support (ISS), Health Systems Funding Platform (HSFP) and Civil Society funding.

Combining five different vaccines in a single vial, pentavalent vaccine brings cost savings in terms of equipment, delivery and disposal programmes. When Gavi set out to catalyse the adoption of new vaccines in low-income countries in 2000, Hib was top of its priority list. The vaccine had existed since the early 1990s, but by 2000, only one low-income country had introduced the vaccine into its national immunisation programme. As a result, support for routine immunisation against Hib was immediately made available through Gavi. Initially, Gavi-eligible countries were slow to take up the offer of support for Hib vaccine, both because of limited awareness of Hib's disease burden and concerns about the cost of the vaccine. By 2004, four years after the Hib vaccine had become part of Gavi's vaccine portfolio, only 15 countries out of the 74 eligible countries had been approved for Hib vaccine support. Initially, Gavi provided support for hepatitis B (hepB) monovalent vaccine. However, in December 2005, the Gavi Board decided only to accept new applications for hepB vaccine support through combination vaccines (tetravalent and pentavalent).

Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control (TMEC) will help meet or exceed PEPFAR targets for reaching adults, key, and priority populations by finding those who have not yet been identified as positive, linking those who are positive to treatment, and by keeping those on treatment virally suppressed. This mechanism will work with a range of stakeholders to ensure that host government health systems and host countries in general are able to maintain program gains with appropriately decreasing dependence on PEPFAR/USAID. EpiC can support USAID's response to address COVID-19, by preventing, preparing for, responding to, and bolstering health systems to address COVID-19 and re-emergence. Within the scope, EpiC can support Pillar 2 activities, including emergency health response, strengthening global health security in affected countries, and health systems support.
