The non-specific effects of vaccines in low income countries [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2010
In their commentary on my article about the non-specific effects of vaccines, Paul Fine and David Elliman state that we are dealing with ‘unproven non-specific effects’ and imply that these effects may not be of widespread importance because ‘much of the evidence’ comes from Guinea-Bissau.1 First, proof is never possible in medicine.

Beneficial non-specific effects of live vaccines against COVID-19 and other unrelated infections [PDF]

The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2022
Live attenuated vaccines could have beneficial, non-specific effects of protecting against vaccine-unrelated infections, such as BCG protecting against respiratory infection. During the COVID-19 pandemic, testing of these effects against COVID-19 was of interest to the pandemic control programme.

Beneficial Non‐Specific Effects of Measles Vaccine: Fact or Fiction?

Background: A recent Systematic Review claimed that randomised controlled trials (RCTs) showed that there are no beneficial non-specific effects (NSEs) of measles vaccine (MV); i.e. effects not explained by prevention of measles infection. The claim contradicts previous meta-analyses. Methods: We examined the reasons for these contradictory views.

Health effects of utilising hospital contacts to provide measles vaccination to children 9–59 months—a randomised controlled trial in Guinea-Bissau

Trials, 2022
Background Measles vaccination coverage in Guinea-Bissau is low; fewer than 80% of children are currently measles vaccinated before 12 months of age. The low coverage hampers control of measles.
