Addressing racial inequality and its effects on vaccination rate: A trial comparing a pharmacist and peer educational program (MOTIVATE) in diverse older adults
CONCLUSIONS: Both interventions significantly improved knowledge and trust toward vaccination and retained their effect 1 month after the program. The 2 effective community-based education models should be expanded to ensure timely and trusted information is available to educate older adults about vaccine-preventable diseases. Further research is encouraged to assess the long-term cost-effectiveness of these models' utilization on a larger scale. DISCLOSURES: Dr Schafer is an employee of Merck; however, at the time of the project, he was a professor at Thomas Jefferson University. The other authors have no conflicts of int...

Effectiveness of thirteen-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine to prevent serotype 3 invasive pneumococcal disease in Quebec in children, Canada
The objective was to estimate PCV13 effectiveness to prevent serotype 3 invasive pneumococcal disease in children aged less than 5 years, using 2010-2018 mandatory notification and laboratory surveillance data, an indirect cohort design and multivariate logistic regression models. A total of 29 cases of serotype 3 and 290 non-vaccine serotype cases as controls were analysed. Overall vaccine effectiveness (≥1 dose) was estimated at 59% [-39% to 88%]. During the first year after the last dose effectivness was 88% [47% to 97%] whereas no protection was observed thereafter. There was no trend towards increased effectiveness ...

Spread of multidrug resistance in non-PCV13/PCV20 serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae: A cross-sectional study ten years after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in Japan
J Microbiol Immunol Infect. 2023 Jul 20:S1684-1182(23)00123-8. doi: 10.1016/j.jmii.2023.07.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTen years after the introduction of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) in Japan, the prevalence rates of non-PCV13 and non-PCV20 serotypes among pediatric pneumococcal isolates were 94.0% and 73.7%, respectively. The predominant non-PCV13/PCV20 serotypes (15A, 35B, and 23A) were mostly multidrug-resistant (≥80.5%), exhibiting non-susceptibility to penicillin.PMID:37517964 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2023.07.004

Temporally Associated Invasive Pneumococcal Disease and SARS-CoV-2 Infection, Alaska, USA, 2020-2021
We described the epidemiology and clinical course of patients who had invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and temporally associated SARS-CoV-2 infections in Alaska, USA, during January 1, 2020-December 23, 2021. Of 271 patients who had laboratory-confirmed IPD, 55 (20%) had a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result. We observed no major differences in age, race, sex, or underlying medical conditions among IPD patients with and without SARS-CoV-2. However, a larger proportion of IPD patients with SARS-CoV-2 died (16%, n = 9) than for those with IPD alone (4%, n = 9) (p<0.01). IPD patients with SARS-CoV-2 were also more likely to...

Incremental effectiveness of 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine against pneumonia hospitalisation among Australian Indigenous children: A record linkage study
CONCLUSION: In this high-risk population, no statistically significant incremental effect of a PPV23 booster at 18-30 months was observed against hospitalised all-cause pneumonia or the more specific outcome of presumptive pneumococcal pneumonia. Confounding by indication may explain the slight trend towards an increased risk against all-cause pneumonia. Larger studies with better control of confounding are needed to further inform PPV23 vaccination.PMID:37507273 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.07.042
