Exploring the Barriers and Facilitators of Vaccine Procurement in Health Districts of the South West Region of Cameroon

Background Immunization is the most cost-effective way of preventing vaccine-preventable diseases and reducing morbidity and mortality in children 0 to 5 years old. The vaccine procurement capacity of health districts significantly influences the vaccine coverage rates. The advent of the socio-political crisis in the North West and South West Regions of Cameroon could have had a negative bearing on vaccine procurement and thus coverage rates. Thus, this study was carried out to explore the barriers and facilitators of vaccine procurement in health districts of a South West Region of Cameroon.
