Sixth Meeting of the WHO South-East Asia Regional Verification Commission for measles and rubella

Overview

The Regional Verification Commission (RVC) for measles and rubella elimination for the WHO South-East Asia Region (SEA-RVC) was established by the Regional Director in March 2016 to verify progress towards measles and rubella elimination and rubella/congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) control in the Region.

The name of this Commission was changed in 2020 to “WHO South-East Asia Regional Verification Commission for measles and rubella elimination (SEA-RVC)” following the adoption of the resolution on “Measles and rubella elimination by 2023” by all Member States at the Regional Committee for South-East Asia in September 2019. The Fifth Meeting of the SEA-RVC was held virtually on 6–7 July 2020
