Abstract

The Roadmap first issued on October 20, 2020 is an approach to inform planning and subsequent recommendations based upon epidemiologic setting and vaccine supply scenarios. WHO SAGE has updated this Roadmap on 16 July 2021 and can now be accessed here 

Context:

Given the urgency and wide-ranging effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, SAGE has developed an approach to help inform deliberation around the range of recommendations that may be appropriate under different epidemiologic and vaccine supply conditions. To assist in developing recommendations for use of vaccines against COVID-19, SAGE proposes a Roadmap for Prioritizing Uses of COVID-19 Vaccines that considers priority populations for vaccination based on epidemiologic setting and vaccine supply scenarios. This Roadmap builds on the WHO SAGE values framework for the allocation and prioritization of COVID-19 vaccination.
