Abstract:
This review describes the advocacy efforts to mobilize resources for the campaign to vaccinate men and women aged 9-39 years, with a goal of eliminating rubella and congenital rubella syndrome in Guatemala. The country's investment in health has been historically low (0.9% of gross domestic product), and there has been a wide gap between the availability of economic resources and the need for economic resources for the immunization campaign. The review contains a summary of the investment made, the results of advocacy and resource mobilization, the vaccination coverage attained, and the campaign's impact on the disease.
