DHIS2 experts presented the new Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFI) metadata package for DHIS2 at a live webinar on **Wednesday, 9 December, from 13:00-14:00 Oslo time (UTC+1).
The recording of the webinar is available on our YouTube channel. The slides from the presentation can be downloaded here.
The AEFI metadata package is modeled on the WHO reporting and investigation form for Adverse Events Following Immunization, and allows the user to capture case-based data using the WHO recommended 25 core variables, facilitate the investigation of adverse events, and generate reliable data for decision making. The AEFI tracker aims to support a sustainable approach to vaccine safety surveillance, including potential application to COVID-19 vaccine delivery.
This webinar will cover:
- Overview of the scope & use case for Adverse Events Following Immunizations (AEFI) tracker. Including relevance of the upcoming COVID vaccine
- Demo of workflow & functionality of the AEFI tracker
- Materials and resources
- Discussion on implementation approaches.
