The Impact of Social Media on Vaccination: A Narrative Review
This study examines the influence of social media on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and non-COVID-19 vaccination in Asia during the peri-pandemic period. Through a comprehensive analysis of available literature, we aim to elucidate the role of SMPs in shaping vaccination attitudes and behaviors. The findings highlight the detrimental impact of social media on vaccination efforts and provide insights into addressing vaccine hesitancy during this critical period. A narrative review was conducted by searching the PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases from inception to May 26, 2022. Only English-language articles i...

Safety and immunogenicity of SIIPL Tdap, a new tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid and acellular pertussis vaccine, in healthy subjects 4-65 years of age: A Phase II/III randomized, observer-blinded, active controlled, multicenter clinical study in Germany
CONCLUSIONS: Booster vaccination with SIIPL Tdap was non-inferior to comparator Tdap with respect to the immunogenicity of the vaccine components and was equally well tolerated. EudraCT number: 2019-002706-46.PMID:37827966 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.09.060 (Source: Vaccine)

Vaccination coverage and predictors of influenza, pneumococcal, herpes zoster, tetanus, measles, and hepatitis B vaccine uptake among adults in Greece
CONCLUSIONS: Vaccination coverage was suboptimal and especially low in tetanus, HZ, and hepatitis B immunization. Person-centered approach, with provision of appropriate information about vaccines' safety and efficacy, responding to each patient's needs, as well as physicians' strong recommendation for vaccination are considered crucial to advocate against the spread of vaccine misinformation and increase vaccination coverage.PMID:37820537 | DOI:10.1016/j.puhe.2023.09.002 (Source: Herpes)

Immunogenicity and safety of concomitant administration of the sabin-strain-based inactivated poliovirus vaccine, the diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis vaccine and measles-mumps-rubella vaccine to healthy infants aged 18 months in China
The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on China's healthcare system, causing a noticeable decline in vaccine coverage and a subsequent resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs) [1 –4]. Immunization programs are intricate, requiring children to receive multiple vaccines concurrently. As new non-immunization programming vaccines (such as Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine (Hib), rabies vaccine, and influenza vaccine (InfV), are available in China, but are usually paid for out-of-pocket, as they are included in neither the EPI system nor government health insurance) are introduced, the number of vaccines adm...

Immunogenicity and immunoprotection of the functional TL-HN fragment derived from tetanus toxin
Vaccine. 2023 Oct 8:S0264-410X(23)01102-7. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.09.032. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTetanus toxin (TeNT) is a protein toxin produced by Clostridium tetani bacteria, which causes hyperreflexia and rhabdomyolysis by spastic paralysis. Like botulinum neurotoxin, TeNT comprises a heavy chain (HC) and a light chain (LC) linked via an interchain disulfide bond, which include the following three functional domains: a receptor-binding domain (Hc), a translocation domain (HN), and a catalytic domain (LC). Herein, we produced and characterized three functional domains of TeNT and three types of TeNT-derived ...

Cost minimization analysis of a hexavalent vaccine in Argentina
CONCLUSIONS: The switch to an alternative scheme with the hexavalent vaccine in Argentina would result in marginally higher vaccine costs, which are mostly offset by the lower costs associated with improved logistics, fewer separate vaccines, and a reduction in adverse events.PMID:37803345 | DOI:10.1186/s12913-023-10038-0 (Source: Cell Research)

Factors associated with vaccine coverage improvements in Senegal between 2005 and 2019: a quantitative retrospective analysis
Conclusions
Childhood vaccination was more likely among children whose mothers had higher literacy, received skilled prenatal care and had perceived ease of access to care when sick. Overall, vaccination coverage is high in Senegal and disparities in coverage between regions have decreased significantly in recent years. (Source: BMJ Open)
