Communications Toolkit COVAX AMC_ 11June.pdf
Admin posted a resource in Vaccine Safety Communication eLibrary
COVAX, the largest and most complex global distribution of vaccines is under way, protecting the most vulnerable from COVID-19, wherever they are in the world. In order to end the acute phase of the pandemic and protect the world against the spread of new variants, the global roll-out must continue at unprecedented speed. The COVAX AMC has raised US$ 9.6 billion to date. This vital funding will enable COVAX to protect almost 30% of the population in 91 lower-income economies. But the COVAX delivery schedule has been hit hard by supply delays, and faces a supply shortfall of 190 million doses. To change the course of the pandemic, plug this short-term gap and help ensure equitable access to vaccines through COVAX: o Countries that have doses need to share them now – not later, when countries’ demand and ability to absorb doses will be met by hundreds of millions of doses that will be available through COVAX Facility deals. o Manufacturers need to prioritise COVAX. o Multilateral development banks must urgently release the funds to pay for health system preparedness to ensure countries can absorb the doses delivered. We call on the international community to reaffirm its support for the COVAX AMC and act urgently as One World Protected: Committed to Deliver. -
A vaccine to prevent COVID-19 is likely to be the most effective way to control the pandemic. Scientists across the world have worked to develop vaccines which have then been rigorously tested for safety and efficacy. Those with a role in delivering/supporting the COVID-19 vaccine programme need to be knowledgeable, confident and competent in order to promote confidence in the vaccination programme and deliver the vaccine safely. The purpose of this pack is to ensure you have all the resources and information you need to hand, acting as a ‘go to guide’ to support you when talking with patients who are eligible for a Covid-19 vaccination but are showing signs of hesitancy. People may be concerned about or refusing the vaccine due to worries, fears, unclear about messages or for many other reasons. It’s important to understand that people will have their point of view and it may take time to talk through their concerns. Using Motivational Interviewing techniques, listening skills and sharing factual information about Covid-19 and the vaccine may help to encourage people and offer reassurance. -

Admin posted a resource in Vaccine Safety Communication eLibrary
La pandémie de Covid-19 ayant causé plus de 100 millions de cas et plus de 2,3 millions de morts à l’échelle mondiale, la publication des résultats des études pivot des premiers candidats-vaccins contre la Covid-19 a été une source d’espoir pour la communauté internationale. De nombreux pays ont rapidement initié une campagne vaccinale contre la Covid19 ; plus de 150 millions de doses ont été administrées dans le monde au 12 février 2021 (https://ourworldindata.org/covid-vaccinations).
