More than 36 million children were given MR vaccine, reaching >99% coverage. WHO provided support for emergency preparedness and response in disease surveillance, laboratory strengthening and case management, including rapid expansion of ICU capacities; and support to enhance capacity to implement the various relevant provisions of the International Health Regulations (2005), water supply and sanitation, and food safety measures. WHO assisted the government to establish 14 severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) isolation and treatment centres. This included setting up referral pathways to enable the transfer of critical COVID-19 patients or patients with other serious pathologies to intensive care at Sadar Hospital, Cox’s Bazar. As part of the COVID-19 response, WHO supported the formulation of various iterations of the Bangladesh Preparedness and Response Plan (BPRP) in line with the SPRP Strategic Response and Preparedness Plans to provide a coordinated multisectoral response to the pandemic. WHO supported the Government of Bangladesh to rapidly scale up COVID-19 testing capacity from a single RTPCR laboratory in the country to 160 (56 government and 104 private) during 2020–2021, and in the use of other platforms such as GeneXpert and RDT rapid diagnostic test capacities. WHO also supported the roll-out of online training on COVID-19 RT-PCR testing for health personnel. Surveillance and reporting mechanisms were strengthened during the pandemic to monitor epidemiological data and guide outbreak response for priority communicable diseases. An oxygen surge and continuity plan, that led to the delivery of six field oxygen plants, was prepared with WHO assistance. WHO continued to support the Rohingya refugee humanitarian crisis response in Cox’s Bazar district, including COVID-19 related services. WHO assisted the government in its COVID-19 vaccination programme. As of 31 December, more than 125 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine were administered.

End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) BANGLADESH 4 Country stories featured in Results Report 2020–2021 Improving access to noncommunicable disease services for Rohingya refugees and immediate host communities in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) account for 67% of all deaths in Bangladesh, with nearly one in five at risk of dying due to NCDs between 30 and 70 years of age. NCDs disproportionately affect the poor, leading to a vicious cycle of disease, poverty, and non-productivity. In August 2017, at the time of mass influx into Bangladesh, Rohingya refugees living with NCDs were vulnerable to deterioration of health due to difficult living conditions and interrupted access to health care services. The WHO Country Office in Bangladesh established a coordination mechanism, supplied medicine kits for NCDs, and supported the establishment of basic services for care and management of NCDs as part of essential health services for Rohingya refugees and immediate host communities (approximately 1.44 million people). As of February 2022, more than 95% of health facilities provide care for people living with NCDs with the support from 908 primary health care workers trained by WHO. Among WHO PEN training participants in September 2020, Sarmin Nahar, a midwife, is concerned about the impact of NCDs on the health of pregnant women Read more about impact case story on: Improving access to noncommunicable disease services for Rohingya refugees and immediate host communities in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh https://www.who.int/about/accountability/results/who-results-report-2020-2021/country-story/2021/bangladesh © W H O B an gl ad es h/ Ta tia na A lm ei da End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) BHUTAN 1 Major contributions by WHO WHO provided support in developing Bhutan’s COVID-19 national contingency preparedness and response plan, down to the district level. WHO also provided both technical and financial support in developing costed action plans for COVID-19 preparedness and response for the Ministry of Health. The Royal Government launched its COVID-19 vaccination programme with WHO support in March 2021. The country drew international acclaim by successfully vaccinating 90% of its adult population in only two weeks through a nationwide campaign. The Country Office provided personal protective equipment (PPE), laboratory supplies, COVID-19 testing kits and infection control supplies. Support for the pandemic response was enhanced by timely training of health-care workers, simulation exercises, and strengthening of surveillance and contact tracing. WHO’s package of essential noncommunicable (PEN) disease interventions has been scaled up by the Ministry of Health to five districts (Gasa, Dagana, Mongar, Bumthang and Lhuntse). The expansion efforts were carried out with WHO support using a ‘Tri-partnership’ model involving the Khesar Gyalpo University of Medical Sciences of Bhutan, the Ministry of Health, and district health authorities. WHO supported the supply and installation of handwashing and drinking water stations in hospitals as a part of the WASH in health-care facilities programme. This initiative was time-sensitive since infection prevention and control (IPC) measures were intensified to prevent and control COVID-19 transmission during periods of pandemic lockdown. WHO Bhutan helped develop health service and workforce standards, including traditional medicine treatment guidelines; and align Bhutan’s Human Resources for Health (HRH) Strategic Plan with evolving workforce needs. WHO also supported the development and launch of the national directions for nursing and midwifery services in the country.

End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) BHUTAN 4 Country stories featured in Results Report 2020–2021 A rapid and coordinated response to COVID-19 in Bhutan Bhutan’s first reported COVID-19 case was imported in March 2020. The government reacted quickly to contain the case but new importations remained a considerable risk. Bhutan shares long land borders with India and China and has a relatively low density of health workers; only 370 medical doctors, 1500 nurses, and 700 community health workers serve a population of 760 000 people. Rapid transmission of COVID-19 in Bhutan would threaten to quickly overwhelm the health system as an inevitable consequence. Fortunately, years of infectious disease preparedness activities conducted by the government with technical and financial support from WHO prepared Bhutan to rapidly detect and respond to COVID-19. Bhutan’s rapid, harmonized response prevented thousands of COVID-19 infections and saved hundreds of lives. From 2020-2021, 2660 COVID-19 cases and four deaths occurred in Bhutan, a lower disease burden than many other countries.

WHO also continued to lead the collaboration with partners and stakeholders in the health sector to address the immediate and urgent health needs in the country. WHO supported finalize the country’s multiyear plan for a comprehensive immunization programme and helped develop and submit a new proposal for funding to Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, on health systems strengthening. The National Pandemic Preparedness Plan was finalized in April 2021 with assistance from the WHO Regional Office and Country Office. WHO also supported the Ministry of Public Health in implementing an integrated surveillance and reporting system for influenza and COVID-19 tapping into existing networks on influenza- like illnesses (ILI) and severe acute respiratory infections, and in instituting public health and social measures to control the pandemic. Within the limitations imposed by the pandemic lockdown, the Country Office focused on improving data, analytics and health information systems to strengthen the country’s health policies and service delivery. This included guidance and support for publishing the annual health report and translation of WHO guidelines on health indicators in the national language.

In India, the National Health Policy 2017 and the on-going operationalization of Ayushman Bharat – Health and Wellness Centers aims to bring comprehensive PHC closer to India’s 1.3 billion population. Fundamental to the success of this initiative is the addition of a cadre of mid-level health care workers in the form of community health officers to lead the PHC team. To date, over 115 000 health and wellness centres are functional and nearly 90 000 community health officers have been added to the health workforce. The WHO Country Office in India provides technical and implementation support in select states and aspirational districts towards achieving the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare’s goal of 150 000 functional health and wellness centres by the end of 2022. A recent WHO-led assessment of the role and performance of community health officers in health and wellness centres in two states in India indicates that community health officers make a noticeable addition to the public sector’s capacity to manage the noncommunicable disease (NCD) burden, as well as address common ailments, and thereby represent a primary care response to the epidemiological transition in India. The results of the assessment informed recommendations to further strengthen the contribution of community health officers to deliver primary health care services.

WHO provides ongoing technical support to the Indonesian Ministry of Health by generating evidence, formulating national strategic plans and policies, strengthening case management, and improving surveillance and information systems. Malaria cases in Indonesia decreased from 1.1 million to 659 000 between 2015 and 2019, and it is estimated that 75% of Indonesia’s population now live in malaria-free communities. Since November 2018, WHO has provided focused subnational support in nine low-performing districts with moderate to low endemicity. Of these nine districts, two have been declared malaria free by the Ministry of Health, and one district has reported no indigenous cases since January 2019.

End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) MYANMAR 4 Country stories featured in Results Report 2020–2021 Providing essential lifesaving services during humanitarian crisis in Myanmar Following the military takeover of the legislative, judicial and executive powers of Myanmar on 1 February 2021, the situation in Myanmar changed dramatically. Protests against the military regime took place across the country. Security forces cracked down on unarmed people, a curfew was put in place from 20:00 until 04:00 the next morning nationwide, and martial law was imposed in many townships. Considerable disruption was encountered with internet connectivity, electricity, and financial services. Even worse was the disruption of services for essential and emergency services at public health facilities due in part to health care workers participating in the civil disobedience movement and in part by the on-going conflict. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, in parallel with the military takeover and subsequent political turmoil, the WHO Country Office in Myanmar designed and developed a strategic purchasing of services model, engaging with three partners (a national professional association, the national red cross, and a private hospital entity) to ensure that lifesaving essential health services were provided for people in dire need.

End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) NEPAL 4 Country stories featured in Results Report 2020–2021 Building laboratory capacity for diagnostic testing and sequencing of COVID-19 in Nepal To effectively control coronavirus disease (COVID-19), it is necessary to a) have widespread molecular diagnostic assays to identify SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals and b) have rapid virus genome sequencing to support monitoring of disease spread and activity as well as the evolution of the virus. In January 2020, the first suspected case of COVID-19 was clinically diagnosed in Nepal. The National Influenza Centre (NIC) at the National Public Health Laboratory (NPHL) was the only public diagnostic respiratory laboratory in Nepal with capacity to conduct molecular diagnostic assays through real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR). However, the laboratory did not yet have the capacity to conduct rRT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 nor was it able to sequence the virus. Recognizing the urgent need for widespread molecular diagnostic assays and genomic sequencing in the face of the pandemic, Nepal launched a collaborative capacity building effort. By March 2022, two years after WHO characterized the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic, over 5.5 million molecular diagnostic assays for SARS-CoV-2 were conducted by 105 laboratories in Nepal (56% public sector, 44% private sector) and nearly 2000 SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences were shared with the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID).

Sri Lanka has also been certified as having eliminated mother-to-child transmission of HIV and syphilis and sustained its validation for 2020–2021. WHO supported a comprehensive assessment of all public secondary and tertiary care facilities to determine their capacity for effective screening, testing, isolation and management of COVID-19 cases and helped with the establishment of an integrated system for management of home isolation for asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic COVID-19 patients.1 WHO supported the strengthening of laboratory capacity for diagnostics, enrolled all state laboratories in the WHO External Quality Assurance Programme, and helped to extend their capacity to conduct real-time polymerase chain reaction. Supported the development of the national vaccination deployment plan with other partners such as Gavi and UNICEF, and provided technical support for the seamless issuance of the ‘smart vaccination certificate’, which allows problem-free international travel based on data from the COVID-19 vaccination information management system that in turn draws on the district health information system (DHIS2). The metadata model of the COVID-19 immunization tracker was shared with other countries and adapted by Timor-Leste. 2 Technical support including hardware support was provided to strengthen surveillance throughout the country, develop a mobile application to capture real-time surveillance data on the Google platform, and offer training at the district level on monitoring, data use and web-based surveillance. In collaboration with the Ministry of Health and partners, the Country Office developed and adapted more than 600 sets of trilingual risk communication materials on COVID-19 and other public health topics. WHO also supported the government in developing national plans, policies and guidelines on mental health, leprosy elimination, medicines policy, patient safety and quality, cancer control, paediatric cancer care and suicide prevention.

The information system was critical for epidemiological monitoring and measures to control the outbreak and proved to be a key support to Sri Lankan health authorities’ battle against the disease. The system enabled health authorities from local to national level monitor the rate of vaccination in all regions of the country, including remote areas, and to identify areas where more effort was needed to protect the population through vaccination. The information system generated open-source real-time data which facilitated the government’s issuance of the digital Smart Vaccination Certificate (SVC). The certificate was required for travel abroad or other activity where presentation of the SVC was obligatory. Ease-of-access to the SVC was made possible by the COVID-19 immunization tracker, which was developed in 2021 by the WHO Country Office in Sri Lanka in partnership with the Health Information Systems Programme Sri Lanka, the core District Health Information Software (DHIS2) developers’ community from the University of Oslo, Norway, and the Information and Communication Technology Agency of Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka was one of the first countries in the world to deploy a DHIS2-based COVID-19 vaccination information management system. This system was shared with other countries in the region as a public good and was adapted by Timor-Leste in developing their own vaccine tracker.

End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) THAILAND 4 Country stories featured in Results Report 2020–2021 United Nations Thematic Working Group on NCD Prevention and Control in Thailand Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are responsible for 74% of all deaths in Thailand each year. Multisectoral action is central to controlling NCDs; the health sector alone cannot address NCDs and their underlying social determinants and risk factors. To strengthen multisectoral action to reduce NCD risk factors, in 2018, at the invitation of the Government of Thailand, the WHO Country Office in Thailand organized a joint programming mission of the United Nations Interagency Task Force on the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases. Results of the joint mission included a set of 17 recommendations designed to scale-up Thailand’s response to the NCD epidemic. The outcome of some of these recommendations is already evident, for example: plain packaging of tobacco products has been introduced and a law on restricting marketing of unhealthy food and beverages to children is in progress. Following the United Nations Interagency Task Force mission, as suggested by the Task Force, a United Nations Thematic Working Group on NCD Prevention and Control in Thailand was established to follow-up on recommendations of the joint mission.

End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) TIMOR-LESTE 4 Country stories featured in Results Report 2020–2021 Renewing the pledge to end tuberculosis in Timor-Leste Tuberculosis (TB), one of the world’s deadliest infectious diseases, is estimated to affect 508 per 100 000 inhabitants of Timor-Leste annually. The country has the second-highest incidence rate of TB in the WHO South-East Asia Region and is among the top 10 highest incidence rates in the world. While the burden of TB in the island country is not unknown or new, it is complex. Malnutrition and smoking, both having historically high prevalence rates in Timor-Leste, are the top two known drivers of the TB epidemic and contribute more than 50% of an estimated 18 new cases of TB each day in Timor-Leste. The COVID-19 pandemic has further impacted TB services leading to more than 20% decline in case notification, that is likely to lead to an increase in cumulative TB cases and an increase in cumulative deaths. Consequently, the immense efforts made in improving outreach of services and providing quality care made over the past two decades are under threat of derailment. To stem the rising tide of TB and ensure fructification of efforts, Timor-Leste, with WHO support, renewed its pledge to end the disease. His Excellency Prime Minister, together with the Minister of Health, WHO Representative and Minister of State Administration, officially launches the National Plan for Accelerated Actions for Ending TB by 2025 during a pledge signing ceremony Read more about impact case story on Renewing the pledge to end tuberculosis in Timor-Leste https://www.who.int/about/accountability/results/who-results-report-2020-2021/country-story/2021/renewing- the-pledge-to-end-tuberculosis-in-timor-leste © N al da /W H O T im or -L es te Country flyers GPW 13 Outcome flyers End-of-Biennium Programme Budget Performance Assessment (PBPA 2020–2021) OUTCOME 1.1 1 GPW 13 Outcome 1.1: Improved access to quality essential health services Major contributions by WHO Supported Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Indonesia, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Timor-Leste to define guidelines for essential health services and operationalize essential service packages through service standards.
