Effect of COVID-19 on vaccination coverage in Brazil
This study revealed that the ongoing immunization drive saw a steep decline of around 10 to 20% during the (2019-2020) pandemic period in Brazil. These results provide strong evidence towards the decreasing trends following the vaccination programs during the COVID-19 pandemic period in Brazil. Furthermore, our results also highlight the importance of adopting widespread multi-component interventions to improve vaccination uptake rates.PMID:34845982 | DOI:10.1099/jmm.0.001466

Genomic investigation of a Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 24F strain causing meningoencephalitis in Hong Kong
Int J Med Microbiol. 2021 Nov 30;311(8):151543. doi: 10.1016/j.ijmm.2021.151543. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) successfully decreased the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease in children. However, many countries have reported serotype replacement and a rebound in diseases from non-vaccine serotypes. Here, we report the genomic investigation of a Streptococcus pneumoniae strain M215 that caused severe meningoencephalitis in an infant in 2019. The strain was assigned to serotype 24F using the bioinformatic pipeline SeroBA and pneumococcal type specific anti-sera. The strain was re...

Genetic characterization of clonal complex sequence type 2057 (cc2057) serogroup B < em > Neisseria meningitidis < /em > strains unique to Japan and identification of a capsular-switched serogroup Y isolate cc2057
Conclusion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to provide genetic insights from epidemiologically unique N. meningitidis cc2057 strains isolated only in Japan, an island country.PMID:35238737 | DOI:10.1099/jmm.0.001504

Serotype distribution and antimicrobial resistance of invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates among Croatian adults during a fifteen-year period (2005-2019)
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease in adults is highest in patients ≥65 years of age. Penicillin susceptibility, increased exposure and macrolide resistance were mostly associated with serotypes 14 and 19A. PCV13 and PPV23 provide very high serotype coverage. Future studies should evaluate the effects of the 10-valent vaccine, introduced in the Croatian National Immunization Program in June 2019, on serotype distribution and antibiotic resistance rates.PMID:35505649
