In Côte d’Ivoire, there was an innovative strategy to accelerate COVID-19 vaccination coverage through targeting Easter travelers. Easter is a time of heavy travel; regional celebrations known as Paquinou are organized. Large public gatherings/mass movement make this a high-risk period for transmission.

The COVID-19 vaccination strategy promoted ‘vaccinate before travel’ and included pop up vaccination promotion to encourage travelers to get vaccinated before traveling.
