Measles Laboratory Activities

Quality Assurance

VIDRL provides and coordinates the measles IgM quality assurance panel for the WHO global measles laboratory network.

Quality assurance is a critical initiative to demonstrate the integrity of surveillance data produced by the global measles laboratory network.

The annual distribution, analysis and provision of technical advice to countries participating in the WHO measles IgM quality assurance program is essential to ensure high quality laboratory testing, which underpins the global measles control and eradication program.

To date over 100 countries have received and tested at least one panel provided by VIDRL.
