Comprehensive care of adults with respiratory diseases must include vaccines
Vaccines are among the most effective tools we have to improve and save lives, but only if they are administered to eligible patients. In this issue, Naeger et al1 highlight the major opportunities that the health care community has to achieve high adult vaccination rates. These vaccines include those for prevention of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), pneumococcal, and influenza, diseases that respiratory health professionals are most aware of, plus pertussis (in Tdap), herpes zoster (HZ, shingles), and as of May 3, 2023, respiratory syncytial viral, for which adults with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseas...

Exploring missed opportunities for influenza vaccination and influenza vaccine co-administration patterns among Italian older adults: a retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: A sizeable proportion of older adults who received other recommended vaccines during the last influenza season did not receive SIV. This share of missed opportunities, which are subject to some social inequalities, may be addressed by increasing vaccine co-administration rates and implementing tailored health promotion interventions.PMID:37632235 | DOI:10.1093/eurpub/ckad155

Missed Opportunities for Adolescent Immunizations at Well-Care Visits During the COVID-19 Pandemic
The Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic disrupted healthcare, but the impact on vaccination missed opportunities (MOs, vaccine-eligible visits without vaccination) is unknown. We evaluated pandemic-related trends in MOs at adolescent well-care visits for three vaccines: human papillomavirus; quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate; and tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap).

Effect of an inactivated coronavirus disease 2019 vaccine, CoronaVac, on blood coagulation and glucose: a randomized, controlled, open-label phase IV clinical trial
ConclusionCoronaVac showed a good safety profile and could induce a humoral response against the prototype and VOCs of SARS-CoV-2 in adults 18 years or older, with no abnormal effects on laboratory parameters of blood glucose and coagulation function.

The Guardian view on the vaccine shortfall: tackling disruption and distrust | Editorial
Millions of children have missed routine immunisations due to the pandemic. But saving lives is about more than logisticsThe horror of the Covid-19 pandemic brought with it one small cause for optimism: the crisisaccelerated the development of new vaccine technologies, with the potential to protect against other diseases. Yet this leap forward was accompanied by a dramatic backsliding in the delivery of existing vaccines, with23 million children missing out on routine immunisations in 2020 and 25 million in 2021 – the largest sustained decline in three decades.The World Health Organization reports that more prevalent and...

Exclusion of older adults and immunocompromised individuals in influenza, pneumococcal and COVID-19 vaccine trials before and after the COVID-19 pandemic
CONCLUSIONS: During the COVID-19 pandemic, we found a decrease in the exclusion of older adults from vaccine trials but no significant change in the inclusion of immunocompromised individulas.PMID:37027085 | PMC:PMC10080508 | DOI:10.1007/s40520-023-02380-4

Viral diseases of the nervous system-Selected new and old viruses
Nervenarzt. 2023 Mar 21. doi: 10.1007/s00115-023-01452-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTViral diseases of the nervous system are ancient and poliomyelitis was described in Egypt as early as 2000 BC. They can cause a wide range of neurological symptoms, such as meningitis, encephalitis, meningoencephalitis, Guillain-Barré-like syndrome and stroke, often leaving mild to severe residuals. Depending on the pathogen, the symptoms appear quickly within hours, or lead to increasing chronic symptoms within 1 week or months. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which was newly identified in January 202...
