IS A THIRD DOSE OF MEASLES VACCINE NECESSARY - AN IMMUNOLOGIST’S VIEW
Immunological aspects of features of post-vaccine immune response to measles virus are presented and causal relationships are detected, that lead to the disappearance of protective antibodies against measles virus, as one of the arguments for improvement

ABSTRACT Aim Countries with varicella immunisation programmes have seen major reductions in disease burden. While two‐dose schedules are now universally adopted, dosing ages vary, and some countries initially include catch‐up vaccination of older children to speed impact. This modelling study assessed three two‐dose schedules in the Swedish setting (1)

Rationale for Recommending Varicella Vaccination Into the Swedish National Immunisation Programme
ABSTRACT Aim Under Swedish law, a vaccination may be included in the National Immunisation Programme (NIP) if it effectively prevents transmission in the population, is cost‐effective and aligns with ethical and humanitarian principles. The Public Health Agency of Sweden (PHAS) evaluated these criteria for introducing varicella vaccination. Methods The

ABSTRACT Aim To assess the cost‐effectiveness of including varicella vaccination in the Swedish national vaccination programme for children together with the added impact of catch‐up vaccination of susceptible older children. Methods An epidemiological transmission model was used to assess the cost‐effectiveness of a two‐dose national varicella ...

A Personalised Vaccination Program Based on Immune Reconstitution in Paediatric Cancer Survivors
ABSTRACT Aims Paediatric cancer survivors often experience treatment‐induced immunosuppression, requiring post‐treatment revaccination. However, immune recovery timelines vary, and current revaccination guidelines, largely based on data of varied quality derived from studies on acute‐lymphoblastic‐leukaemia (ALL), may not be applicable across all ...

Molecular characterisation of the emerging measles virus from Roraima state, Brazil, 2018
Measles is a human infectious disease of global concern that is caused by the measles virus. In this study, we report the complete genome sequencing of one measles virus isolate, genotype D8, that was obtained directly from a urine sample in Boa Vista ...

ABSTRACT Aim To analyse the association between specific socioeconomic measures and the risk of incomplete vaccination for diphtheria‐tetanus‐pertussis (DTP) and measles‐containing vaccine (MCV) in Swedish two‐year‐olds. Methods This nationwide, population‐based cohort study included 227 457 children born in Sweden during 2014–2015.
