What Are Some Examples of GIS in Vaccine Surveillance?
Several successful examples illustrate the use of GIS in vaccine surveillance:
The Global Polio Eradication Initiative uses GIS to monitor polio vaccination campaigns and track the spread of the virus. During the COVID-19 pandemic, GIS was used extensively to track vaccine distribution, monitor vaccination rates, and identify hotspots of infection. The Measles & Rubella Initiative employs GIS to map out areas with low vaccination coverage and high disease incidence.
