The problem
Intervention: School-based vaccination campaign
Who it was tested with: Vulnerable children and adolescents in eThekwini district during the 2018 diphtheria outbreak.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"School-based outbreak vaccination response can rapidly increase vaccine coverage; however, additional community engagement may be required in vaccine-hesitant populations." This suggests the intervention showed success in some aspects (rapid coverage increase) but encountered challenges in engaging hesitant communities, indicating mixed results.
The abstract does not provide specific outcome measures, baseline coverage rates, or quantified results. The design and methodology are not detailed, making it impossible to assess the strength of evidence.
