Resumen
Descripción
Digital solutions offer an
opportunity to digitalize the vaccine delivery process,
registration, and certification, making it more accurate,
secure, effective, and connected with other health systems
to provide a comprehensive view of the vaccination campaign.
However, a lot of questions have been raised in terms of
ethics, privacy, inequity, costs, and standards. These have
made the case to create global standards and guidelines.
These standards andguidelines should provide a response in
terms of how to implement and not what specific solution to
implement, taking into account the different country
contexts, digital maturity, and needs. Any crisis of this
scale inevitably attracts a large number of potential
technology solutions—some highly innovative, some based on
existing proven systems, some yet unproven, and some
addressing underlying problems to enable better outcomes.
This paper aims to help practitioners better understand the
key capabilities of such digital systems and digital health
solutions, the priorities for certain functionality, and how
these systems may operate with existing country resources
(e.g., Electronic Medical Record and Management Information Systems).
