Report of SAGE April 2011 meeting published
19 May 2011 - At the SAGE meeting of 5-7 April 2011, a cross-cutting concern emerged that weak primary health care services, particularly in Africa, are impeding the ability of countries to deliver on immunization strategies. Health systems strengthening, and the creation of a grassroots advocacy movement at global, national and community levels in support of access to vaccines, will be needed if we are to achieve the global immunization targets that have been set.
