In January 2019 Public Health England, Public Health Wales, The Public Health Agency in Northern Ireland and Health Protection Scotland published the UK Measles and Rubella elimination strategy 2019. A copy is attached.<\/p>
The strategy sets out four core components required to maintain elimination of measles and rubella: achieving and sustaining very high coverage (more than or equal to 95%) with two doses of measles, mumps and rubella vaccine (MMR) through the routine childhood immunisation programme; providing opportunities for MMR catch-up to all susceptible population groups over five years old; strengthening surveillance systems by rigorous case investigation and laboratory confirmation of suspected sporadic cases and outbreaks; and improving the availability and use of high-quality, evidence-based information for health professionals and the public on measles and MMR.<\/p>
A multi-agency group has been established to take forward the actions in the strategy in England. Local teams including those in London are expected to work with local stakeholders to develop a measles and rubella elimination action plan.<\/p>"}

<\/p>
Public Health England (PHE) and NHS England work closely with providers at a local level to target specific communities where uptake of the Measles Mumps and Rubella vaccine is known to be poor, as well as widening access by commissioning a range of alternative providers to complement existing general practitioner activities and community health service delivered immunisations.<\/p>
<\/p>
PHE also contributes to national standard development and setting for immunisation providers and commissioners, which includes recommendations for commissioners and providers on increasing immunisation uptake among children and young people in groups and settings where immunisation coverage is low.<\/p>"}
