Book excerpt: In 2005, the WHO Regional Committee for the Western Pacific established 2012 as the target year for measles elimination (resolution WPR/RC56.R8). At its sixty-third session in 2012, the Regional Committee urged Member States to accelerate progress towards measles elimination and establish national verification committees (NVCs) to develop regular progress reports for submission to the RVC (WPR/RC63.R5). In October 2014, a regional rubella elimination goal was endorsed by the Regional Committee, as one of eight regional immunization goals specified by the Regional Framework for Implementation of the Global Vaccine Action Plan in the Western Pacific (WPR/RC65.R5). Activities towards rubella control have been in place in the Region since 2003. The target date for rubella elimination has yet to be set by the Regional Committee. Establishing verification processes and criteria for measles has progressed well, and all countries and areas have a national or subregional verification committee (SRVC) and have submitted progress reports to the RVC. Given that all countries in the Western Pacific Region have already incorporated the combined measles- and rubella-containing vaccine (MRCV) into their vaccination schedules and that rubella is less contagious than measles, rubella elimination is feasible within the framework of the regional measles elimination strategies.

Book excerpt: These guidelines were developed based on the shared experiences from and consultations with WHO Member States. A consultation on verification of measles elimination in the Western Pacific Region was held in Manila, Philippines, in June 2010, and another consultation between the Regional Verification Commission and Member States took place in April 2012 in Manila, Philippines. Definitions of measles elimination and other essential concepts are provided, and core principles are enumerated. The core principles include the independence of the verification process led by the RVC and NVCs at regional and national levels, respectively. The RVC has the discretion to apply alternative evidence of elimination in place of recommended evidence and indicators for countries that are unable to provide complete data to assess standard indicators.

Book excerpt: The Manual for the Surveillance of Vaccine-Preventable Diseases, updated through 2013, provides current guidelines for those directly involved in surveillance of vaccine-preventable diseases, especially personnel at the local health departments. For each of the vaccine-preventable diseases, this manual includes a chapter describing the importance of rapid case identification; the importance of surveillance; disease reduction goals; case definitions (including clinical description and case classifications); epidemiologically important data to be collected during case investigation; activities for enhancing surveillance; activities for case investigation; and activities for outbreak control. Other chapters include information on surveillance indicators; surveillance data analyses; reporting adverse events following vaccination; and enhancing surveillance. In addition, the manual includes a section reserved for insertion of state-specific guidance for VPD surveillance and extensive appendices. This manual was first developed in 1996 to provide general guidance to state and local health department personnel who are involved in surveillance activities for vaccine-preventable diseases. This manual answers commonly asked questions regarding the surveillance and reporting of vaccine-preventable diseases and provides information on enhancing existing surveillance systems.
