Policy-makers worldwide are increasingly interested in scaling up evidence-based interventions (EBIs) to larger populations, and implementation scientists developing frameworks methodologies for achieving this. But scaling-up does not always produce the desired results. Why not? We aimed enhance awareness of various pitfalls be anticipated when planning scale-up. In lower- middle-income countries (LMICs), scale-up health programs prevent or respond outbreaks communicable diseases has been...
