Priorities for the National Vaccine Plan
Preface: Letter from the Assistant Secretary for Health
Given the importance of vaccines and immunizations in the prevention of an expanding number of infectious diseases, it is important that we – as a Department and as a Nation --clearly articulate our vision for the vaccine and immunization enterprise. In my role as the Assistant Secretary for Health and the Director of the National Vaccine Program, I have directed and monitored the efforts to update the 1994 National Vaccine Plan
The accompanying draft strategic National Vaccine Plan reflects current priorities and potential future directions for the next decade. This draft Plan offers a clear signal about our goals for vaccines and immunizations to our domestic and international partners in the United States vaccine and immunization enterprise and abroad, both public and private in the United States and abroad. It is a strong beginning, but requires extensive consultation with and input from many partners, including the public. This input will also enable us to develop an implementation plan with discrete activities and measurable milestones. With release of this draft Plan, consultations with stakeholders will begin, led by the National Vaccine Program Office and the National Vaccine Advisory Committee. We all look forward to the final products of these efforts in late 2009.
This draft strategic National Vaccine Plan responds to the mandate of Congress contained in P.L. 99-660, in which the vision of the National Vaccine Program was first outlined. The first National Vaccine Plan had fourteen expected outcomes, most of which have been achieved at least in part. However, the world of vaccines has changed dramatically since 1994, with more diseases for which vaccines could be available, multiple new research tools, many available new vaccines, heightened interest in vaccine safety, new communications tools, and many more people for whom vaccines are routinely recommended.
This draft Plan describes proposed strategies for ways in which the United States can promote immunization to protect the health of all people. Subsequent work with our many partners will enhance and improve this draft, so the final plan can implement strategies to assure all people can benefit from the prevention of infectious diseases.

Executive Summary
The National Vaccine Program was established in 1986 to achieve optimal prevention of infectious diseases through immunization and optimal prevention of adverse reactions to vaccines. The purpose of the National Vaccine Plan is to promote achievement of the National Vaccine Program mission by providing strategic direction and promoting coordinated action by vaccine and immunization enterprise stakeholders.
Federal involvement in civilian and military vaccination programs is longstanding, including in research and development, regulation, vaccine delivery and the evaluation of the impacts of immunizations. This draft strategic National Vaccine Plan builds on the many achievements of the vaccine and immunization enterprise prior to and since the establishment of the National Vaccine Program in 1986 and the completion of the first National Vaccine Plan in 1994. New vaccine preventable disease targets have been identified and new vaccines have been developed and licensed; many of these new vaccines are now recommended for children, adolescents and adults. These new vaccines have expanded the number of infections that can be prevented, and more effectively and safely prevent some diseases for which earlier generation vaccines already existed. In addition, federal immunization financing programs have reduced or eliminated many financial barriers to immunizations, particularly for children. The number of infections that are preventable by vaccination has decreased significantly while vaccination coverage in the United States has increased, and coverage for many vaccines has reached record levels. More robust systems have been developed to identify adverse events following immunization and to assess potential associations of those events with vaccination. Globally, the United States has worked with multilateral and bilateral partners and non-governmental organizations in contributing to improvements in child health status and the prevention of hundreds of thousands of child deaths each year through improved vaccine coverage and introduction of new vaccines. Of the fourteen anticipated outcomes included in the 1994 National Vaccine Plan, most were substantially or fully realized (see Appendix 1).
Despite these successes, however, many of the challenges that stimulated establishment of the National Vaccine Program and the development of the 1994 National Vaccine Plan remain relevant today. Vaccine shortages have frequently been experienced for many routinely recommended vaccines. Despite improved vaccination coverage among children, the occurrence of several recent vaccine preventable disease outbreaks serves as a reminder that these diseases still occur. Among older adults both vaccination coverage and the effectiveness of some routinely recommended vaccines remain sub-optimal. As the number of vaccines has increased and vaccine preventable diseases have declined, vaccine safety concerns are expressed more prominently today and may be more widely shared. Enhancing the current vaccine safety system is important to keep pace with several factors influencing it: an increasing number of vaccines and vaccine combinations, expanding target populations, and a better understanding of human biology, especially the human immune system. As the cost of vaccination has increased, financial barriers to vaccination have emerged for health departments, healthcare providers, and the public. Significant scientific challenges remain in the development of

safe and effective vaccines against existing global health threats, such as HIV, TB and malaria. Vaccines that have been developed and are in use in industrialized countries have the potential to make major contributions to health in developing countries, but are being underused. Additionally, emerging and pandemic infections and bioterrorist threats pose new challenges for vaccine development and regulation, manufacturing, vaccine delivery and access in the US and abroad.
In the context of the many challenges and opportunities that exist, updating the 1994 National Vaccine Plan is an opportunity to provide a strategic focus for the nation’s efforts to improve disease prevention and enhance vaccine safety. This draft strategic National Vaccine Plan is primarily the result of deliberation, analysis, and input from multiple Federal agencies under the coordination of the National Vaccine Program Office (NVPO). A committee empanelled by the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine (IOM) reviewed the 1994 National Vaccine Plan and provided guidance on the development of the updated Plan (see Appendix 2). Because successfully preventing infectious diseases and enhancing vaccine safety are outcomes of a complex process, identifying objectives and strategies that lead to and sustain these outcomes is facilitated by understanding the many interconnected determinants of these outcomes. A framework that identifies components of the vaccine and immunization enterprise and illustrates their interrelationships is shown in Figure 1. While a simplification of a complex system, this framework provides an overview of key processes from beginning to end (critical components are shown as rectangular boxes and intermediate and long term outcomes as rounded boxes). The intermediate and long term inputs and outcomes of the vaccine and immunization enterprise include the Recognition of public health priorities, Vaccination (adult, adolescent and childhood), High vaccination rates, Population health protection against infectious disease in the U.S. and globally, and Reduced morbidity and mortality from infectious diseases in the U.S. and globally. The critical components of the vaccine and immunization enterprise that contribute to achieving the desired outcomes include Translational research for diffusion of innovation, Disease surveillance, Vaccine research, Vaccine development, Vaccine licensure, Vaccine manufacture, Vaccine sales/purchase, Vaccine distribution, Communications and education strategies, Attitudes about vaccination, Develop vaccine recommendations, Access/payment for vaccination reimbursement, Adverse event monitoring, Vaccine effectiveness, and Vaccine coverage surveillance.

Priorities for the National Vaccine Plan
The goals, objectives, and strategies included in this plan were drafted by Federal departments and agencies for which vaccines and immunization are a significant part of their mission and provide a comprehensive approach to reach these outcomes through coordinated efforts of Federal, State, local, multinational and non-governmental stakeholders. Recognizing that success is facilitated by careful planning that includes defining specific activities, milestones and measurable outcomes, an implementation plan will be developed based on this draft plan. With a ten-year horizon, the framework balances a strategic vision, which requires development and implementation of new initiatives, with the recognition that changing circumstances and new opportunities and challenges will occur over the next decade. The ten-year horizon also allows incorporation of the HealthyPeople 2020 objectives once those are established. Annual monitoring of progress and a mid-course review will promote both accountability and flexibility.
The Plan is built around the achievement of five broad goals:
Goal 1: Develop new and improved vaccines
Goal 2: Enhance the safety of vaccines and vaccination practices
Goal 3: Support informed vaccine decision-making by the public, providers, and policy-makers
