This study evaluated the cost and impact of meningitis epidemics on the public health system in Burkina Faso. Results showed relatively high costs of reactive immunization campaigns using polysaccharide meningococcal vaccine and the disruption of routine health services.
These findings support routine immunization with meningococcal conjugate vaccine, assuming affordability, adequate duration of protection, and infrequent serogroup replacement.
