Description : BACKGROUND

The Solomon Islands is a double chain archipelago of more than 900 islands with a landmass of 28, 400km2 and over 1.3 million km2 of Territorial Ocean. The country is considered as a fragile and least developing country (UN LDC status), with total population of 599, 419[1] and annual birth cohort to be around 19, 000 infants. There are nine provinces plus one city council in the country. With the vast expanse of territories inhibited by relatively small and widely dispersed populations, Solomon Islands shows unique characteristics in terms of meeting the health demands of remote and isolated populations.

The Ministry of Health and Medical Services (MHMS) through its Reproductive and Child Health Division (RCH) are adopting the strategic objectives of the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP) which is to ensure that the benefits of immunization are equitably extended to all people. Achieving this objective will mean that every eligible individual is immunized with all appropriate vaccines irrespective of age, gender, disability, educational level, socioeconomic level, work condition, geographic location or ethnicity. GVAP challenges countries not only to reach at least 90% national vaccination coverage and at least 80% vaccination coverage with all antigens in every district but also to sustain these gains over the long term. The GVAP also supports the introduction of under-utilized and new vaccines to help an individual countries diseases control goals.
