rapidly put into effect. However experience has shown that it is usually impractical to attempt mass 
immunisation immediately following a disaster and that, when attempted, it detracts from the overall 
relief effort without producing a discernible benefit. Effective immunisation requires prior 
planning,good systems of communication and transport, and access to the population at risk. These 
requirements cannot be met in the immediate post-disaster period. Efforts to achieve mass 
vaccination in the relief phase also drain whatever limited manpower, communication facilities, and 
transportation exist.
