Background
Since its emergence in late 2019, the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has continued to pose a threat to the performance of COVID-19 countermeasures. Adjustments of vaccine composition may be needed to optimize the performance of COVID-19 vaccines due to the emergence of variants of concern (VOCs). To assist countries, the World Health Organization (WHO) is assessing the impact of VOCs on countermeasures and provide, as appropriate, recommendations to adapt them. To support this work, WHO established the TAG-CO-VAC in September 2021, a multidisciplinary group of 18 experts whose main functions are to: 1) Make recommendations to WHO on the methods to assess the impact of VOCs on vaccines; 2) Provide interpretation of available evidence on the effect of VOCs on vaccines, including but not limited to vaccine effectiveness; and 3) Recommend to WHO, for each COVID-19 vaccine platform, adaptations (if any) needed so that vaccines continue to safely provide WHO-recommended levels of protection against VOCs.
The TAG-CO-VAC works closely with other WHO advisory groups – such as that of the Technical Advisory Group on SARS-CoV-2 Virus Evolution (TAG-VE), the Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE) and its Working Group on COVID-19 Vaccines, and the working groups of the WHO R&D Blueprint for Epidemics – and consults regulatory agencies and vaccine manufacturers
Deliverables:
Deliverable 1: Finalize the re-appointment process for TAG-CO-VAC members; Expected by: 31 December 2022.
Deliverable 2: Facilitate the drafting and submission of a scientific article authored by TAG-CO-VAC Members and Secretariat to a peer-reviewed journal for publication; Expected by: 31 January 2023.
Deliverable 3: Facilitate the convening of an in-person meeting of the TAG-CO-VAC; Expected by: 31 March 2023.
Deliverable 4: Coordinate the operational support of the TAG-CO-VAC Secretariat, including the preparatory and reporting work for monthly meetings, the drafting of content for external communication, and the facilitation of internal coordination with other technical areas; Expected by: 31 May 2023.
