Mr. Gore's platform calls for spending about $140 billion over 10 years to raise coverage among the uninsured.
Influenza vaccination rates among children are low and novel strategies are needed to raise coverage.
The ACSD approach may have contributed to a projected 14 per cent reduction in the under-five mortality in the Upper East Region by raising coverage levels of key child survival interventions.
Additional coverage may be used to correct a few more errors, but the method reached a plateau rapidly (for example we only correct 16 additional errors by raising coverage from 50 to 100x; Table 2).
Enriching the pool of reference sequences by including previously identified variant allele patterns, followed by remapping, improved mapping efficiency, raising coverage by 50% from regions with the greatest deviation, resulting in a coverage pattern indistinguishable from controls.
This pentavalent vaccine is also expected to raise coverage of Hib and Hep B to the existing DPT coverage levels, which would otherwise be lower if Hib and Hep B vaccines were administered separately.
Secondly, although the combination of SMARTNET and the Tanzania National Voucher Scheme has created a functioning system for net distribution, it is clear that a "catch up" campaign is urgently required to raise coverage levels in all socioeconomic groups.
Since epidemics often start or spread rapidly in densely populated areas (as was the case with Timor-Leste's measles outbreak in 2011), it is important for children throughout Timor-Leste to raise coverage in Dili.
EPI involvement is critical in adapting the survey instruments to local realities, developing and implementing interventions to raise coverage rates, and monitoring their usefulness, as well as for satisfying ethical requirements.
Look for any mention of the pay raises in coverage of the current school crisis and you will be lucky to find it.
