Gavi transition and MICs countries pricing

The UNICEF presentation provided an overview of the global HPV vaccine market, highlighting ongoing supply constraints since 2017 and expected stabilization by 2026. It detailed the five WHO-prequalified vaccines available for procurement, including products from GSK, Merck, Innovax, and the newly added Yuxi Zerun. The session reviewed long-term agreements (LTAs) for both Gavi-supported and middle-income countries, noting active negotiations to extend contracts beyond 2025. Pricing structures were outlined, emphasizing significant differences between Gavi-eligible and middle-income markets and the growing role of Chinese manufacturers in cost reduction. Finally, UNICEF underscored the importance of accurate five-year demand forecasts from countries to ensure timely procurement and secure affordable vaccine supply.
