Outbreaks

The Measles & Rubella Partnership is a global entity that provides funding and technical support directly to countries to address measles and rubella outbreaks. Through annual funding from Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, and other supporters the M&RP partners are able to rapidly provide resources to countries experiencing outbreaks for targeted response activities including the purchase of vaccines and operational costs. M&RP has provided technical support to numerous countries working to prevent and stop measles outbreaks. This support is pivotal and sets M&RP and its partners apart, making it all the more unique. In addition to technical support, M&RP Outbreak Response Funds have been provided to the countries in the table below.
