Perspective on Global Measles Epidemiology and Control and the Role of Novel Vaccination Strategies
Measles is a highly contagious, vaccine preventable disease. Measles results in a systemic illness which causes profound immunosuppression often leading to severe complications.

Vaccination and Immunity toward Measles: A Serosurvey in Future Healthcare Workers
Measles is a very contagious infectious disease, and vaccination is the only medical aid to counter the spread of the infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of vaccination schedule and type of vaccine, number of doses, and sex on ...

The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its promising ...

Measles and Measles Vaccine in Japan
Before the introduction of measles vaccine in 1971, measles was a common and well-recognized disease in Japanese children. Seroepidemiological studies conducted before the general use of the vaccine disclosed that measles epidemics differed from community to community; in rural areas, epidemics appeared at intervals of several years with the ...

IMPORTANCE Parents hesitant to vaccinate their children may delay routine immunizations or seek exemptions from state vaccine mandates. Recent outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases in the United States have drawn attention to this phenomenon ...

ABSTRACT T cell responses are rarely measured in large‐scale human vaccine studies due to the sample volumes required, as well as the logistical, technical, and financial challenges associated with available assays. Fluorescent cell barcoding has been proposed in other contexts to allow for more high‐throughput flow cytometry‐based assays.

Immunogenicity and Efficacy of a Measles Virus-Vectored Chikungunya Vaccine in Nonhuman Primates
Background Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection can result in chikungunya fever (CHIKF), a self-limited acute febrile illness that can progress to chronic arthralgic sequelae in a large percentage of patients.

A model of opinion dynamics with echo chambers explains the spatial distribution of vaccine hesitancy [PDF]
Vaccination hesitancy is a major obstacle to achieving and maintaining herd immunity. It is therefore of prime importance for public health authorities to understand the dynamics of an anti-vaccine opinion in the population. We introduce a novel mathematical model of opinion dynamics with spatial reinforcement, which can generate echo chambers, i.e ...

Modeling and presentation of vaccination coverage estimates using data from household surveys [PDF]
It is becoming increasingly popular to produce high-resolution maps of vaccination coverage by fitting Bayesian geostatistical models to data from household surveys. Often, the surveys adopt a stratified cluster sampling design. We discuss a number of crucial choices with respect to two key aspects of the map production process: the acknowledgment of ...
