Overview

In the wake of COVID-19, building resilient health systems is more critical than ever. Building Health System Resilience Before, During, and After a Pandemic provides an in-depth analysis of how pandemics impact essential health services, specifically through the lens of childhood immunization coverage in northern Nigeria. This book explores the multifaceted consequences of pandemic responses on vulnerable communities, drawing from the stark disparities observed in immunization rates and access to healthcare amid COVID-19. It reveals both the intended and unintended effects of containment measures like lockdowns, which disrupted routine vaccinations and strained healthcare delivery in underserved regions. Combining quantitative data and qualitative insights, the book highlights how crises can deepen existing healthcare inequities, especially for marginalized populations. Recommendations are provided for policymakers, health practitioners, and global health advocates to ensure equitable healthcare delivery during crises. With practical strategies for bolstering immunization outreach, sustaining supply chains, and fostering community trust, this book serves as a blueprint for strengthening health systems to withstand future public health emergencies, ultimately guiding countries toward resilient and inclusive healthcare frameworks.
