Invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) is a notifiable in the Region of Madrid. The 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) recommended for children and adults aged two years or over with high risk disease, all 60 over. We describe evolution IPD incidence from 2008 to 2011 people PPV23 effectiveness (VE). VE estimated using both screening method indirect cohort method. varied 20.0 15.2 per 100,000 inhabitants (RR: 0.8; 95% CI: 0.6–0.9). Adjusted was 68.2% (95% 56.2–76.9). Broome 44.5%...
The use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines has affected the epidemiology and distribution Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes causing Invasive Pneumococcal Disease (IPD). aim this study was to analyze evolution phenotypical profiles antimicrobial susceptibility penicillin (PEN) in all IPD strains isolated Madrid, Spain, during 2007–2021. In total, 7133 invasive clinical isolates were characterized between 2007 2021. Levels PENR PNSSDR 2.0% 24.2%, respectively. addition, 94.4% belonged four...
An appropriate vaccination approach is critical to control the current outbreak of mpox but there little research providing information on its effectiveness, particularly under circumstances limited vaccine availability.
