This guide also draws on the standard operating procedures (SOPs) to apply for measles outbreak response
support from the Measles & Rubella Initiative Outbreak Response Fund (17) and includes a section on
measles outbreak recovery so that contributing factors and potential root causes are identifi...ed and

on measles elimination or routine immunization (RI) more broadly.

Following a long recovery from the economic crisis (2007–2013), young people in the EU proved to be more vulnerable to the effects of the restrictions put in place to slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Young people were more likely than older groups to experience job loss, financial insecur...ity and mental health problems. They reported reduced life satisfaction and mental well-being associated with the stay-at-home requirements and school closures. While governments responded quickly to the pandemic, most efforts to mitigate the effects of restrictions were temporary measures aimed at preventing job loss and keeping young people in education. This report explores the effects of the pandemic on young people, particularly in terms of their employment, well-being and trust in institutions, and assesses the various policy measures introduced to alleviate these effects.

Cependant, la proportion de laboratoires rapportant des cas faussement positifs reste élevée et indique un problème de spécificité probablement dû à une contamination. La proportion de laboratoires rapportant à la fois des résultats faussement positifs et faussement négatifs soulève la question de la qualité des données rapportées par l'OMS en Afrique ainsi que des résultats des études menées dans ces différents laboratoires dans divers pays.
