Review: Factors influencing parents' decisions to vaccinate children against COVID-19
CONCLUSION: This review identified critical factors affecting parents' vaccination behavior for their children. Awareness of these factors may reduce parents' COVID-19 vaccine refusal for their children and guide future planning and development of public health studies.PMID:37735055 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.09.020

Patient-reported reactogenicity and safety of COVID-19 vaccinations vs. comparator vaccinations: a comparative observational cohort study
CONCLUSION: The rate of adverse reactions after established vaccinations was roughly comparable to previous studies. Two weeks after vaccination, participants in the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination group reported more local and systemic local reactions than participants in the comparator group. In the further course, however, there were no higher odds of medical consultations in either of the two groups. Thus, altogether, we assume comparable safety.TRIAL REGISTRATION: DRKS-ID DRKS00025881 and DRKS-ID DRKS00025373.PMID:37726711 | DOI:10.1186/s12916-023-03064-6

The re-emergence of influenza following the COVID-19 pandemic in Victoria, Australia, 2021 to 2022
ConclusionEnhanced testing for respiratory viruses during the COVID-19 pandemic provided a more complete picture of influenza virus transmission compared with previous seasons. Returned international travellers were important drivers of influenza reemergence, as were young adults, a group whose role has previously been under-recognised in the establishment of seasonal influenza epidemics. Targeting interventions, including vaccination, to these groups could reduce future influenza transmission.PMID:37707981 | DOI:10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2023.28.37.2300118

Knowledge, attitudes, concern, behaviors, and barriers associated with the readiness to receive seasonal influenza vaccine among healthcare workers in oncology setting during the COVID-19 pandemic
This study examines the knowledge, attitudes, concerns, behaviors, and barriers related to seasonal influenza vaccination among healthcare workers (HCWs) in the oncology setting during the COVID-19 pandemic. The objective is to assess the readiness of HCWs to receive the influenza vaccine. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC) in Amman, Jordan. HCWs were surveyed using a self-administered web-based questionnaire between October 2021 and November 2021. Among 223 participants, the coverage rates for seasonal influenza vaccination ranged from 65% to 81% during the autumns of 2019 and 2...

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAfter the temporary end of COVID-19 in China in February 2023, the influenza epidemic peaked in March across many Chinese places. We recruited a total of 258 all-age subjects presenting influenza-like illness (ILI) in Shihezi city, China from January 1 to March 16, 2023, and tested for influenza virus infection. Using a test-negative design, we assessed influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) of 56.3% (95% CrI: 13.6, 73.6) against medically attended, influenza illness during the delayed 2022/23 influenza epidemic.

Estimating SARS-CoV-2 infections and associated changes in COVID-19 severity and fatality
CONCLUSIONS: Since 2021, changes in the dominant SARS-CoV-2 variant, vaccination rollout, and the shift of infection to younger ages have reduced SARS-CoV-2 infection ascertainment. The same factors, combined with the improvement of patient management and care, contributed to a massive reduction in the severity and fatality of COVID-19.PMID:37599801 | PMC:PMC10432583 | DOI:10.1111/irv.13181
