Considerations for integrating COVID-19 vaccination into immunization programmes and primary health care for 2022 and beyond

Overview
This document lays out key programmatic
considerations essential for moving from mass
campaigns for COVID-19 vaccination to integrating
COVID-19 vaccination into immunization
programmes, PHC and other relevant health
services for 2022 and beyond.
The ultimate aim
is to fully explore potential areas for integrating
different components of immunization
programmes, PHC and health systems. Given the
evolving epidemiological nature of the COVID-19
pandemic, this is a living document and will be
updated to reflect the changing context, including
as policies for COVID-19 vaccinations over the
longer term are formulated. Finally, the document
is not intended to outline a prescriptive approach
but rather to present considerations and options
for countries to consider and apply based on their
needs and the country context.
