"Objective 1: Maintain high rates of immunity and vaccination coverage. Although the outbreak has concluded, vaccination campaigns will continue after transmission is interrupted to ensure that immunity against polio and all vaccine-preventable diseases remains high. It is likely that there are stil ... l individuals who have never been vaccinated [...] Objective 2. Transition from polio to health, and establish supportive norms and habits." (Page 2) more

"Phase 1: Immediate Response Communication addresses the beginning of an outbreak and focuses on building, or rebuilding, caregivers’ critical awareness around key variables.

The primary goals are to urgently r ... aise awareness of the outbreak, its progression, the disease, the vaccine, vaccination dates, and health workers and to reach a threshold of at least 90% campaign awareness at national level and in highest risk areas as quickly as possible [...] Phase 2: Adaptive Phase Communication begins once the awareness threshold has been achieved or as soon as vaccination failures begin to emerge. APC involves identifying and addressing barriers to immunisation, and optimises communication to reach every missed child." (Page 2) more
