Subnational inequalities in diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis immunization in 24 countries in the African Region
CONCLUSION: There were marked inequalities in DTP immunization dropout rates between districts in most countries studied. Monitoring dropout at the subnational level could help guide immunization interventions that address inequalities in underserved areas, thereby improving overall DTP3 coverage. The quality of administrative data should be improved to ensure accurate and timely assessment of geographical inequalities in immunization.PMID:34475600 | PMC:PMC8381099 | DOI:10.2471/BLT.20.279232

Improving uptake of vaccines in pregnancy: A service evaluation of an antenatal vaccination clinic at a tertiary hospital in the UK
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Uptake of pertussis and influenza vaccines within a secondary care immunisation service was higher than the national or regional average. The model of vaccine delivery was associated with high levels of satisfaction. This model of vaccine delivery could be implemented elsewhere to increase vaccine uptake, and should be considered for delivery of COVID-19 vaccines in the future.PMID:34965498 | PMC:PMC8639287 | DOI:10.1016/j.midw.2021.103222

Improving vaccination rates in older adults and at-risk groups: focus on pertussis
Aging Clin Exp Res. 2022 Jan 10:1-8. doi: 10.1007/s40520-021-02018-3. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDespite the implementation of effective paediatric vaccination programmes, pertussis remains a global health problem. Disease epidemiology has changed over time, shifting towards the adolescent and adult populations. In adults, the true burden of pertussis is greatly underestimated and pertussis vaccine coverage rates are suboptimal, including individuals with chronic conditions. Here, we report the outcomes of a virtual international scientific workshop to assess the evidence on the burden of pertussis in older adults and i...

Worldwide routine immunisation coverage regressed during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic
We report a 2·9% (95 %CI: [2·2%; 3·6%]) global decline in DTP3 coverage from an expected 89·2% to a reported 86·3%; and a 2·2% decline in DTP1 coverage (95 %CI: [1·6%; 2·8%]). These declines translate to levels of coverage last observed in 2005, thus suggesting a potential 15-years setback in RI improvements. Further research is required to understand which factors - e.g., health seeking behaviours or non-pharmaceutical interventions - linked to the COVID-19 crisis impacted vaccination coverage.PMID:35177301 | PMC:PMC8789555 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.01.044

Impact of Hospitalization in an Endocrinology Department on Vaccination Coverage in People Living with Diabetes: A Real-Life Study
Conclusions: Our real-life study highlights that hospitalization and multidisciplinary management (i.e., physician-pharmacist) may be key points in the diabetes care pathway to improve vaccination coverage, especially for patients with advanced diabetes and comorbidities.PMID:35208544 | PMC:PMC8879927 | DOI:10.3390/medicina58020219

Direct Medical Costs of Four Vaccine-Preventable Infectious Diseases in Older Adults in Spain
CONCLUSION: The direct economic burden of herpes zoster, pneumococcal disease, influenza and pertussis in adults 45 years and older was high in Spain, and may be underestimated as it only considered medical assistance and not other applicable direct or indirect costs. Increasing vaccination rates in adults may potentially reduce the economic burden derived from these diseases, although future cost-effectiveness analysis including other disease-related costs, vaccination costs and vaccination effectiveness would be needed.PMID:35254649 | PMC:PMC8899779 | DOI:10.1007/s41669-022-00329-3

Multidimensional Frailty and Vaccinations in Older People: A Cross-Sectional Study
In conclusion, the coverage of recommended vaccinations is low. Higher SELFY-MPI scores and vaccination status, particularly anti-pneumococcus, appear to be associated, but future studies are urgently needed for confirming that frailty is associated with vaccination status in older people.PMID:35455304 | PMC:PMC9028390 | DOI:10.3390/vaccines10040555

Flu and pertussis vaccination during pregnancy in Geneva during the COVID-19 pandemic: A multicentric, prospective, survey-based study
CONCLUSIONS: In Geneva, most gynaecologists offer pertussis immunization during antenatal care and uptake is high, but more efforts must be done to increase influenza vaccination coverage. Education level impacts maternal flu vaccination uptake, but other social disparities did not.PMID:35534311 | PMC:PMC9076028 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.04.076

Catch-up vaccination campaign in children between 6 and 8  years old during COVID-19 pandemic: The experience in a COVID hub in Milan, Italy
CONCLUSIONS: This experience has demonstrated that a mass vaccination campaign could be a useful tool in catch-up strategies, even during the pandemic. It should be part of a bigger immunization program strategy that also includes efforts to simultaneously strengthen routine immunization services. With the appropriate organizational improvements, this initiative could pave the way for future successful campaigns involving different age groups and vaccinations.PMID:35570078 | PMC:PMC9098956 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.05.005

Vaccination coverage of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: Challenging issues from an outpatient secondary care setting in Greece
CONCLUSIONS: Vaccination rates of patients with T2D show an increasing trend, especially for influenza and S. pneumoniae, although the one for S. pneumoniae was low. Older people seem more prone to vaccination, the one for herpes zoster was low with infected patients remaining unvaccinated while significantly low coverage was observed for other VPDs. The findings are important to improve effectiveness of preventative services.PMID:35979460 | PMC:PMC9376377 | DOI:10.3389/fpubh.2022.921243

The decline in immunity and circulation of pertussis among Chinese population during the COVID-19 pandemic: A cross-sectional sero-epidemiological study
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of pertussis decreased during the study period in the COVID-19 pandemic; however, there was still a certain proportion of adolescents and adults with evidence of recent infection. The decline in antibody levels after pertussis vaccination was observed, and booster doses are in urgent need in China.PMID:36283895 | PMC:PMC9581792 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2022.10.020
