“New delivery methods in the fight against vaccine-preventable diseases?“

To be prepared for future pandemics and ensure global equitable access to vaccines some  key challenges must be addressed :

• Supply Shortages & Stockouts:
  Stockouts of essential vaccines which occur on a national and subnationale level,  increase the risk populations will not be protected against deadly vaccine-preventable diseases.    (1)
• Resource Constraints:
  A projected global shortage of 10 million healthcare providers by 2030 limits vaccination efforts.  (2)
• Vaccine Hesitancy:
  Fear of needles, especially among children, contributes to declining vaccine-uptake. (3)
• Healthcare Worker Safety:
  Needlestick injuries (NSIs) are accidental puncures from needles that expose healthcare workers to bloodborne pathogens like HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepaticis C.  Next to generating a significant direct and indirect cost, needlestick injuries provoke stress, especially if the HCP is exposed to high-risk patients.  (4)
