Displaced populations due to humanitarian emergencies and its impact on global eradication and elimination of vaccine-preventable diseases. Issue 1 (December 2016) - Lam, Eugene

Vaccination strategies among displaced populations should not be an afterthought and must be part of the vaccine-preventable disease eradication and elimination initiatives from the start.
