1 Non-polio AFP rate Cases with adequate specimens (%) HIGHLIGHTS T e c h n i c a l A d v i s o r y G r o u p m e e t i n g, Manila, June 2014 The 23rd meeting of the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) on Immunization and Vaccine-Preventable Diseases in the Western Pacific Region was held in Manila on June The TAG members noted that the Regional Office for the Western Pacific, Expanded Programme on Immunization worked in consultation with WHO country offices and Member States to finalize the Regional Framework for Implementation of the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP), including the goal of maintaining polio-free status, and to submit this framework to the Regional Committee for the Western Pacific for its endorsement. During the 23rd TAG meeting, the draft plan, Polio Endgame in the Western Pacific Region, was noted as a resource to guide and support the implementation of polio endgame activities in the Region. The TAG welcomed the conclusion of the 19th Regional Commission for the Certification (RCC) of Poliomyelitis Eradication regarding the polio-free status of the Region. The TAG acknowledged the progress made at the country and regional level toward implementation of the polio endgame. This includes: a. dissemination of technical information including the November 2013 SAGE recommendations on inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) schedule, revised WHO position paper on polio vaccines, International Health Regulations (IHR) recommendations for travellers coming from polio infected countries, and other important resources; b. multiple advocacy and sensitization events which played a role in the initiation of the polio endgame plans in many countries; c. initiation of funding requirements discussions including results of the UNICEF IPV tender and the GAVI board decision; and d. IPV introduction dates planned for most countries, and registration of IPV nearly complete.
