Modelling Impact of Different Varicella Immunisation Strategies Upon Introduction in the Swedish National Programme

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 11, Page 2525-2532, November 2026.
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)
