Post Introduction Evaluation of Pneumococcal and Rotarix Vaccines in Botswana
Overview
The post Introduction Evaluation (PIE) was conducted in accordance with the World health Organisation (WHO) recommendation that all countries that have introduced a new vaccine should conduct a PIE, 6-12 months post-introduction, to assess the overall impact of the introduction of new vaccine(s) on a country national immunisation programme. Botswana was therefore due to conduct a PIE for the two vaccines (pneumococcal and rotavirus) which were introduced in July 2012.
The main objective of the evaluation was to assess the overall impact of the new vaccine introduction on the national immunisation programme.
The PIE specific objectives were:
1. To identify, document and rectify any programmatic and logistical difficulties relating to the introduction of pneumococcal and rotavirus vaccines.
2. To evaluate the incremental costs of introducing new vaccines
3. To provide lessons learned for similar experiences in future and for future countries that may introduce new vaccines.
