Vaccine Information by Disease Category

WHO develops and issues considerable information regarding vaccines for specific diseases. This includes within its Technical Report Series, within the meeting reports of the WHO Expert Committee on Biological Standardization, and as WHO Vaccine Postion papers. It is relevant to many different vaccines stakeholders, including regulators who oversee licensing and production of vaccines, vaccines manufacturers, procurers who procure vaccines for national immunization programmes, and health care providers who administer vaccines to at-risk populations.
