Agenda

2nd NVAC Workshop on Strengthening the Supply of Vaccines in the U.S.

Wyndham City Center - Washington, DC
1143 New Hampshire Avenue, NW

In February 2002, the National Vaccine Advisory Committee (NVAC) convened a workshop discussion to evaluate the problems of vaccine supply and prepare a report on strengthening the supply of routinely recommended vaccines in the United States.

The 2002 meeting identified both immediate and contributing factors to the vaccine supply disruptions in 2001.  The summary report outlined a number of strategies, by which the existing system could be improved, including the following:

  • streamlining the regulatory processes;
  • addressing liability issues;
  • utilizing vaccine stockpiles; and
  • increasing financial incentives for research, development, production and administration.

The purpose of this follow-up workshop is to bring stakeholders together to: develop a progress report on the recommendations made in 2002; identify both continuing and new factors that may threaten a stable vaccine supply; and outline specific actions that can have a durable effect in resolving impediments to the consistent and reliable availability of licensed vaccines.
