Estimating the impact of decreasing vaccination response times for outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases in low- and middle-income countries
Improvements made to ORI response time could reduce disease burden and decrease the risk of large outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases in LMICs. Efforts to improve ORI timeliness should be prioritised to higher risk settings, and it was clear that even a slow vaccination response was beneficial relative to no response at all.
