Social mobilization is an important component of the delivery of vaccines and has to be carried out at different levels. It plays a very critical role in success of a campaign, as was shown by the Polio eradication program in India that was supported by SMNet, a platform created for the purpose. Learnings from this has been used for other vaccine deployments in India as well. In addition, there is a social mobilization effort for routine immunization. A guideline for social mobilization was created by UNICEF specifically for cholera vaccine use during Haiti epidemic in 2010. Since there is a need to develop a roadmap for cholera control in India, especially in the known hotspots, and after natural disasters, we suggest a possible strategy that could be built on the existing framework available in India.
社会动员是疫苗接种的重要组成部分,必须在不同层面进行。正如印度脊髓灰质炎根除计划所展示的那样,社会动员在疫苗接种活动的成功中发挥了非常关键的作用,该计划得到了专门为此目的创建的 SMNet 平台的支持。印度还开展了针对常规免疫的社会动员工作。联合国儿童基金会(UNICEF)专门为 2010 年海地霍乱疫情期间使用霍乱疫苗制定了社会动员指南。由于印度需要制定霍乱控制的路线图,特别是在已知的热点地区和自然灾害之后,我们建议可以在印度现有的框架基础上制定一个可能的策略。
