Rationale for Recommending Varicella Vaccination Into the Swedish National Immunisation Programme

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
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

The incidence of varicella and herpes zoster in Massachusetts as measured by the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) during a period of increasing varicella vaccine coverage, 1998–2003

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2005
Background The authors sought to monitor the impact of widespread varicella vaccination on the epidemiology of varicella and herpes zoster. While varicella incidence would be expected to decrease, mathematical models predict an initial increase in herpes

Recombination of globally circulating Varicella Zoster Virus

open access: yes, 2015
Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a human herpesvirus, which during primary infection typically causes varicella (chickenpox) and establishes lifelong latency in sensory and autonomic ganglia. Later in life, the virus may reactivate to cause herpes zoster (

Health Economic Evaluation of Varicella Vaccination Within the Swedish National Vaccination Programme for Children

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
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 ...
