This study describes the experience and results of the vaccination strategies developed for tackling the measles outbreak in Ceará State, Brazil, from December 2013 to September 2015. Strategies of routine vaccination, community immunity, and vaccination campaigns were conducted, along with searching of unvaccinated people, through rapid monitoring of immunization coverage and scanning. To describe the results, primary data collected in field activities and secondary data on vaccination in a population aged from six months to 49 years, available at the Information System of the National Immunization Program (IS-NIP), were used. The immunization coverage achieved was of >95%. However, this coverage is only administrative and may not represent reality, hence the importance of implementing the nominal information system of the National Immunization Program.
本研究描述了2013年12月至2015年9月期间为应对巴西塞阿拉州麻疹疫情而制定的疫苗接种策略的经验和结果。开展了常规疫苗接种、社区免疫和疫苗接种运动等策略，同时通过快速监测免疫覆盖率和筛查来查找未接种疫苗的人群。为描述结果，使用了在现场活动中收集的主要数据以及国家免疫规划信息系统（IS-NIP）中提供的6个月至49岁人群的疫苗接种二级数据。实现的免疫覆盖率超过了95%。然而，这一覆盖率仅是行政数据，可能并不代表实际情况，因此实施国家免疫规划名义信息系统非常重要。
