A report of the April 2013 IPAC meeting was presented. SAGE endorsed IPACs ongoing contributions to the development of the “Reaching Every Community” toolkit and to the immunization session checklist. SAGE supported these additional tools and validated IPACs proposal to pilot test the tools before wide-spread implementation. SAGE noted the importance of including the private sector in consideration of addressing missed vaccination opportunities, as this is often overlooked. SAGE acknowledged that the “Reaching Every Community” tool is not designed for areas which are inaccessible due to dangerous insecurity; as such, further work on identifying best practices in such extreme circumstances needs to be undertaken.
SAGE noted that programmatic guidance by IPAC will be required to support the GPEI, including the withdrawal of OPV2 and the introduction of IPV as recommended by SAGE.
