Significant gaps in hepatitis B vaccination in adults in Viet Nam: Important targets toward hepatitis B elimination by 2030
CONCLUSION: This study depicts a significant unmet need for hepatitis B vaccination in the general adult population in HCMC, Viet Nam. Indeed, the lack of vaccination was unevenly distributed regarding age groups, geographical areas, and socioeconomic statuses, which reveals profound social disparities. Therefore, to achieve hepatitis B elimination goals, besides the current recommendations for infants and risk-based strategies, hepatitis B vaccination should be recommended for the broader population.PMID:36588006 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.12.051

Pneumococcal and influenza vaccination coverage among at-risk adults: A 5-year French national observational study
CONCLUSION: Pneumococcal and influenza vaccination coverage of adults at risk of pneumococcal disease fell well below public health expectations. Invitations for pneumococcal vaccination should be sent by the NHI to high-risk patients. Patient management protocols should include pneumococcal vaccination. Patients with multiple comorbidities are a high-priority population given the large potential health gains offered by pneumococcal vaccination. Commitment of both scientific societies and health authorities is urgently needed to increase vaccination coverage in at-risk populations.PMID:35811205 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.06.071
