02 Recalibrating Gavi 5.0 in light of COVID 19 and successful replenishment pdf

Board -2020 -Mtg -5-Doc 02


Section A: Executive Summary
Context
The COVID -19 pandemic ha s triggered an unprecedented crisis , calling for an
equally exceptional response . At the Global Vaccine Summit in June 2020, in a
remarkable show of solidarity, global leaders came together to support the Alliance
and its mission for 2021 -20 25. The successful replenishment provides Gavi with
an opportunity to bolster support for its ambitious equity agenda, mitigate the
impact of the COVID -19 pandemic on immunisation, sustain hard won gains and
scale up smart investments in improv ing the quality, efficiency, effectiveness and
sustainability of immunisation delivery systems. Given the profound, multi -
faceted impacts of COVID -19 and in light of the successful replenishment , it
is opportune for the Alliance to tak e stock and re -examin e the objectives for
Gavi 5.0.
Questions this paper addresses
? What key shifts in Gavi 5.0 priorit ies does the Alliance envisage in the
context of COVID -19 and the successful replenishment?
? What are the implications for Gavi?s programmatic focus ?
? What are the resource implications ?
Conclusions
While leaving no one behind with immunisation and Gavi?s strategic goals
and objectives for 2021 -20 25 are more relevant than ever , the following
recalibrated priorities will require urgent action :
1. Maintaining, restoring and strengthening immunisation services:
Given the COVID -19 pandemic has caused widespread disruption of
immunisation services in Gavi supported countries, a key priority of the
Alliance will now be to support countries in adapt ing services to operate
safely in the context of the pandemic , restor ing previous levels of
immunisation coverage and catch ing up on children missed due to the
breakdown of services . In doing so, there is an opportunity to ?build back
better ? with efficient, integrat ed and sustainable approaches.
2. Reaching zero -dose children and missed communities : Gavi ?s
ambitious equity agenda has become even more urgent as COVID -19

02 Annex A Zero dose best practices pdf

Report to Board
Board -2020 -Mtg -5-Doc 02 Annex A
Annex A: Zero -dose & equity approach to immunisation: best practices
Pakistan: Precise identification of zero -dose children supported by data integration
and triangulation
? Pakistan has the 4 th highest number of zero -dose children (0.8m) in Gavi
supported countries after Nigeria, India and Indonesia 1. Identifying where the
highest number of these missed children are located and knowing why they
have been missed is a key step in reaching these c hildren through Primary
Health Care (PHC) services. Sub -national data analyses including triangulation
of data to support identification of areas with higher immunity gap and/or with
immunisation services gap. In some specific context like in pivotal count ries or
during preparation of Full Portfolio Planning, identification steps could be more
granular. Triangulation of population data from polio line listing has started
to bear fruit. Most of the electronic immunization registries (EIR) are not suited
to i dentify zero -dose children as only children who have been at least once in
contact with immunisation services are registered. To address this issue,
Pakistan used Alliance support during polio campaigns in 2019 to identify
children who have never being vac cinated in routine immunisation, to line -list
them and integrate them into Zindagi Mehfooz (ZM), the EIR solution used in
Sindh province. This was designed to solve two problems: (1) identifying zero -
dose children missed by routine immunisation; and (2) un derstanding which
children are missed by polio campaign efforts. For the first use case, analyses
showed not only pockets of zero -dose children but also the underlying reasons
for non -vaccination (e.g. ZM captures data relating to vaccinator compliance
wh ich is critical to identifying supply -related issues in the Pakistan context).
? To demonstrate the second use case, in 2019, the line list of children lost to
follow -up for polio was compared to the registry of surviving infants captured by
ZM. As this ana lysis is quite complex and requires advanced data integration
skills (which are costly), a proof of concept focused on a single Union Council
was generated. Results showed that 11% of children lost to the polio
programme, had in fact been reached through r outine immunization activities.
While these approaches require significant investment, they demonstrate how
innovation can help identify children who are otherwise missed by traditional
data systems.
South Sudan: partnership with International Organisation for Migration (IOM) and
Health Pool Fund (HPF) to accelerate vaccination coverage and reach missed
communities
? Gavi entered a partnership with IOM South Sudan in October 2019, with an
aim to support RI through, (1) 20 high priority health facilities in a nd around
Protection of Civilian (POC) sites and (2) provision of immunisation services at
a few specific nutrition treatment centres where mothers regularly access
supplementary nutrition or therapeutic food. A pilot conducted in 5 counties of
former Unit y state (Rubkhona, Mayom, Leer, Mayendit & Panyijar) between
2016 and 2018 showed that almost 50% of children vaccinated with Penta3
received their vaccination from Outpatient Therapeutic Programme (OTP)

Board -2020 -Mtg -5-Doc 03


Section A: Summary
Context
In July 2020 , the Gavi Board approved Gavi as the legal entity to administer the
COVAX Facility (the ? Facility ?), a global mechanism to pool resources and demand
for COVID -19 vaccines with the goal of accelerating the availability of and equitable
access to safe and e fficacious vaccines. The Board also approved the
establishment of the Gavi COVAX AMC (the ? COVAX AMC ?), a financing
mechanism to accelerate and reserve COVID -19 vaccines to ensure that low
income and lower middle -income economies, as well as other IDA -elig ible
economies , have access to COVID -19 vaccines at the same time as wealthier
economies .
The COVAX Facility will have global participation of over 170 economies
representing over 70% of the world?s population. As this paper is being written,
self -financi ng economies have begun to provide their legally binding agreements
which include upfront funding to reserve doses with manufacturers now. This will
allow the Facility to build an actively managed portfolio of 10 -15 vaccine candidates
based upon diverse technologies and geographies to maximise the chance of a
successful outcome and accelerate access with up to two billion doses by end of
2021. The COV AX Facility will shape the vaccine market to expand supply and
achieve economies of scale through aggregating demand and increasing
availability simultaneously in developed and developing countries.
Without a successful COVAX Facility there is a very real risk that lower income
countries will be left behind, and the majority of people in the world will go
unprotected. This would allow the virus and the pandemic to continue unabated
and continue to disrupt the global economy as well as Gavi ?s core mission . The
Gavi Secretariat, including the Office of the COVAX Facility , under the guidance of
the Board, must find the right balance to safe guard the reputation and finances of
the Alliance and successfully deliver on the promise of the Facility. To this end, the
COVAX Facility is designed to ensure the procurement and governance needs of
both Self -Financing Participants (?SFP?) and 92 COVAX AMC -eligible economies
(?AMC92?) are adequately addressed whilst minimising risks to Gavi core
resources and programmes.

Report to the Board
Board -2020 -Mtg -5-Doc 03-Annex A

Annex A: Implications/Anticipated impact
Risk implication and mitigation, including information on the risks of inaction
? Risks associated with the Facility are set out in the paper.
Impact on countries
? The failure of the Facility to provide up to 2 billion doses of COVID -19
vaccines by the end to 2021 will impact equitable access to COVID -19
vaccines, in particular for low -income economies.
Impact on Alliance
? The full Alliance is invested in the success of the COVAX Facility and
COVAX AMC, with Gavi also seeking secondments to ensure that it is fully
leveraging the expertise from across Alliance partners and stakeholders.
Legal and governance implications
? Gavi, as the legal entity of the Facility, will enter into the commitments with
Participants of the Facility and manufacturers and will ultimately bear any
exposure whether financial, programmatic or reputational.
? In addit ion, Gavi must ensure that the administration of the Facility is in
accordance with the decision of the July meeting of the Board to that Gavi
would leverage current governance bodies as well as develop new
decision -making bodies to provide inclusive, tran sparent leadership of the
COVAX Facility and COVAX AMC, and prohibiting Gavi from entering into
commitments with manufacturers relating to SFPs which are not fully
secured by committed resources from the Participants , with appropriate
financial backing for such commitment, as assessed by the MSDC.
