Abstract
Niger's more robust meningitis surveillance system costs four times more per capita than the system in Chad. Since Chad spends less per capita, fewer activities are performed, which weakens detection and analysis of cases. Countries in the meningitis belt are diverse, and can use these results to assess local costs for adapting surveillance systems to monitor vaccine impact.
