Purpose of consultancy

Réalisation d’une enquête de couverture vaccinale post campagne de riposte contre la fièvre jaune dans 09 districts de santé (Bangue, Boko, Bonassama, Cité des palmiers, Deido, Japoma, Logbaba, New Bell, Nylon)

Background

Le Cameroun connait une recrudescence des cas de fièvre jaune. Au regard de cette situation préoccupante et des performances sous-optimales de la vaccination de routine, le pays avec l’appui technique et financier de ses partenaires, s’est engagé à conduire des activités de vaccination supplémentaires réactives. Une première riposte a été organisée dans sept (07) districts de sante (Djohong, Meiganga, Tignère dans la région de l’Adamaoua, Garoua 1, Gaschiga, Ngong dans la région du Nord et Djoum dans la région du Sud) au cours du mois d’avril 2024. Faisant suite à la confirmation des cas dans quelques districts de santé de la ville de Douala, une autre campagne de riposte est planifiée pour les 09 DS de la ville de Douala à savoir : Bangue, Boko, Bonassama, Cité des Palmiers, Deido, Japoma, Logbaba, New Bell, Nylon. L’objectif de cette campagne est de vacciner au moins 95% de la cible âgée de 9 mois à 59 ans dans ces districts. L’enquête de couverture vaccinale post campagne vise à apprécier la couverture vaccinale suivant les exigences méthodologiques de l’OMS.
