Book excerpt: WHO and partners have developed the Measles Outbreak Guide to assist with measles outbreak management in all settings that are striving for and approaching measles elimination. This guide also draws on the standard operating procedures (SOPs) to apply for measles outbreak response support from the Measles & Rubella Initiative Outbreak Response Fund and includes a section on measles outbreak recovery so that contributing factors and potential root causes are identified and addressed systematically after a measles outbreak. The target audience of this guide are health authorities, at all levels, and immunization partners. The purpose is to support countries in measles outbreak preparedness, early detection, response and recovery. This document provides guidance on the preparedness for measles outbreaks; the detection, verification, investigation and response to measles outbreaks, including vaccination strategies; and the development of recovery plans, including post-outbreak health systems strengthening.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current WHO guidance on measles outbreak response published in 1999, emphasized that most outbreaks were either detected too late or spread too rapidly to allow for an effective immunization response. This recommendation was based primarily on a literature review of manuscripts published on the impact of immunization control activities on measles outbreaks in middle- and low-income countries from 1977 to 1993. The validity of these recommendations was reviewed given recent evidence (published and from filed experience) on the impact of outbreak response immunization on measles outbreaks. This review of the evidence was carried out as follows: A consultation meeting was organized by WHO in 2006 to discuss the need for updated guidelines and to review the new evidence which supports the guidance provided in the updated document. The meeting was attended by experts from the CDC, Epicentre, MSF Belgium and MSF France, WHO and UNICEF. An extensive literature review of data (published from 1995-2006) to re-assess the impact of immunization response to measles outbreaks was carried out and the results were summarized and submitted for publication. This included a review of 277 articles. The key findings of this review are summarized in section F below. Review of data from the field and from unpublished studies on the duration of measles outbreaks and effectiveness of interventions with non-selective vaccination. Based on the initial consultations, a draft document was prepared by the Departments of Immunization, Vaccines and Biologicals and Epidemic and Pandemic Alert and Response and comments from experts were solicited. Experts were from, the CDC, the 6 WHO regional offices, MSF, Epicentre, UNICEF and from country level immunization staff and partners.

Book excerpt: Measles: A Comprehensive Guide to Symptoms, Treatment, and Prevention" is a comprehensive reference book that provides a detailed and professional overview of the measles virus and its impact on public health. The book covers various aspects of the disease, including its history, epidemiology, pathogenesis, transmission, clinical features, complications, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and future control strategies. The book begins with a historical overview of measles, tracing its origins and spread across the globe. It then delves into the epidemiology of the disease, examining its global distribution and incidence rates. The pathogenesis of measles and its impact on the human body are explained in detail, followed by a discussion of the various modes of transmission and risk factors for infection. The book then moves on to the clinical features of measles, including early symptoms and disease progression, as well as the various complications that can arise from the disease, such as pneumonia and encephalitis. Special attention is paid to vulnerable populations, such as pregnant women and immunocompromised individuals, and the risks they face from measles infection. The book also covers the prevention of measles through vaccination and outbreak control measures, and addresses common concerns and misconceptions about vaccine safety. The social and economic impacts of measles and the costs and benefits of vaccination programs are explored, as well as the challenges facing developing countries in controlling the disease. Case studies and lessons learned from measles outbreaks provide insight into effective intervention strategies, while advances in research and public health interventions offer a glimpse into the future of measles control. Overall, "Measles: A Comprehensive Guide to Symptoms, Treatment, and Prevention" is an essential resource for public health professionals, medical practitioners, researchers, policymakers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this highly contagious and potentially deadly disease.
