Immunization Matters
An e-newsletter about our work in vaccine uptake and access.
Immunization Matters provides updates from PATH’s Center for Vaccine Innovation and Access (CVIA) on late-stage and licensed vaccines included in our portfolio as well as our work on health economics and optimization, operations research, and support to countries. It includes updates on our progress, partnerships, and specific activities.
This is one of two newsletters published by CVIA. To learn more about CVIA’s vaccine development work, see Moving the Needle.
