15 Subjects to be discussed Gaps in vaccine recommendations between the different countries and regions Challenges for introduction of new vaccines to the immunization schedules Decision making process for vaccine introduction and their influence on vaccine uptake Opportunities to move the agenda of vaccination further
16 Challenges for introducing new vaccines in developing countries Decrease in recent years in the uptake of already existent vaccines Divergence in vaccine products Lack of incentive for vaccine manufacturers to develop needed vaccines Increased cost of clinical development of vaccines while not being sure of the market Vaccines seem not to perform as well in developing country set up Lack of appreciation of differences in decision making process of vaccine introduction between the different regions

19 Subjects to be discussed Gaps in vaccine recommendations between the different countries and regions Challenges for introduction of new vaccines to the immunization schedules Decision making process for vaccine introduction and their influence on vaccine uptake Opportunities to move the agenda of vaccination further
20 Tools for Decision Making Vaccine Introduction Preparedness Policy decision Programme issues Financing Priority Cost-effectiveness Burden
21 Subjects to be discussed Gaps in vaccine recommendations between the different countries and regions Challenges for introduction of new vaccines to the immunization schedules Decision making process for vaccine introduction and their influence on vaccine uptake Opportunities to move the agenda of vaccination further
22 Opportunities Push mechanisms to help vaccine manufacturers overcome the difficulties Pull mechanisms (GAVI) Mobilize local expetise of experts ( academicians and other local scientists) Foster regional cooperation between different countries (Example of PAHO) Include health economists in the decision making process Seek local funding no matter how small Change the way that vaccines are obtained Vaccines to be purchased through the ministry of defense budget (akin to defense shield)
23 Push mechanisms These push mechanisms have been infused with increased funding partly because of the recognition that infectious diseases are major threats to global security, that infectious diseases can spread rapidly from the tropics to the industrialized world and that several diseases of importance to the developing world are also potential bioterrorism threats Clemens and Jodar 2005
24 Opportunities Push mechanisms to help vaccine manufacturers overcome the difficulties Pull mechanisms (GAVI) Mobilize local expertise (academicians and other local scientists) Foster regional cooperation between different countries (Example of PAHO) Include health economists and market experts in the decision making process Seek local funding no matter how small Change the way that vaccines are obtained
25 New paradigm Since infectious diseases are increasingly recognized as major threats to global security and are potential bioterrorism threats, would it not be arguable that vaccines are in fact necessary for national defense?? Vaccines to be bought by the Ministry of Defense
26 Is there enough money for that??
27
28
29
30 So can we afford it??
31 YES WE CAN!!!
32 Conclusions Pneumococcal disease is a major killer of both children and also adults all over the world A vaccine exists that can prevent the occurrence of this disease Pneumococcal vaccine should be bundled along with other pneumonia preventing (HIB) and diarrhea prevention vaccines (rotavirus) for introduction into the vaccine schedules The challenge is to overcome the growing rift between the different populations in access to vaccines
33 Conclusions The new paradigm should not be can we do it?? but rather that yes we can
