Real-time evaluation of the measles vaccination campaign in Conakry City, Guinea, 2017

On February 8, 2017, eight months after WHO declared the end of Ebola virus transmission in the country, Guinean authorities declared an outbreak of measles. During the preparation phase, MSF decided to conduct an evaluation simultaneously with the rolling-out of the vaccination campaign. The objective of this real-time evaluation of the campaign concerned its appropriateness, timeliness, effectiveness, impact and coverage.
