Immunization system highlights

� There is a comprehensive multi-year plan (cMYP) for immunization covering 2011-2016.

� A national committee on immunization practice (NCIP) fully functional.

� A national system to monitor adverse events following immunization (AEFI) exists.

� A national policy for health care waste management including waste from immunization activities exists.

� Pandemic influenza vaccine deployment plan exists.

� There is an “Immunization Act – 2012” and “Immunization Trust Fund”.

� 27% spending on vaccines financed by the government.

� 42% spending on routine immunization programme financed by the government.

� All 75 districts had updated micro-plans that included activities to improve immunization coverage.

� All district level vaccine stores are equipped with electronic continuous temperature monitoring system.

� Out of 75 districts, 65 (87%) districts had ³80% coverage for DTP-Hib-HepB3, and 20 (27%) districts had ³90% coverage for MCV1.

� Multiple indicator cluster survey (MICS) was conducted in 2014. Post MR campaign coverage survey and Nepal demography health survey (NDHS) are planned in 2016.

� Mobilization of local community, resources and ownership using appreciative inquiry approach to increase vaccination coverage.

� HPV demonstration project in 2 districts targeting school going girls of grade 6 and out of school girls of the age 11 years.
