A Guide to Immunization for Canadians by Canada. National Advisory Committee on Immunization Pdf

Some significant changes in immunization practice have occurred since the first edition of this Guide was published in 1980. Inorder that the greatest benefit may be gained from immunizingagents, information on their availability and optimum usage mustbe kept current. Accordingly the National Advisory Committee onImmunization has revised and expanded the Guide to take intoaccount the licensure of new or improved vaccines and immuneglobulins and has modified its recommendations on the usage ofcertain other agents. Among noteworthy changes in this secondedition are the inclusion of recommendations on the use of therecently licensed hepatitis B vaccine and the new human diploidcell rabies vaccine, new sections on adult immunization andimmunization for health care workers, relegation of mention ofsmallpox vaccine to a historical note now that global eradicationof smallpox has been achieved, and deletion of the section ontyphus vaccine which is no longer manufactured. Therecommendations regarding rubella vaccine have undergone majorrevision, elimination of indigenous measles is addressed, andsome changes have been made in the recommended schedules forimmunization of infants and children.

The Childhood Immunization Schedule and Safety by Institute of Medicine,Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice,Committee on the Assessment of Studies of Health Outcomes Related to the Recommended Childhood Immunization Schedule Pdf

Vaccines are among the most safe and effective public health interventions to prevent serious disease and death. Because of the success of vaccines, most Americans today have no firsthand experience with such devastating illnesses as polio or diphtheria. Health care providers who vaccinate young children follow a schedule prepared by the U.S. Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. Under the current schedule, children younger than six may receive as many as 24 immunizations by their second birthday. New vaccines undergo rigorous testing prior to receiving FDA approval; however, like all medicines and medical interventions, vaccines carry some risk. Driven largely by concerns about potential side effects, there has been a shift in some parents' attitudes toward the child immunization schedule. The Childhood Immunization Schedule and Safety identifies research approaches, methodologies, and study designs that could address questions about the safety of the current schedule. This report is the most comprehensive examination of the immunization schedule to date. The IOM authoring committee uncovered no evidence of major safety concerns associated with adherence to the childhood immunization schedule. Should signals arise that there may be need for investigation, however, the report offers a framework for conducting safety research using existing or new data collection systems.

Framework for Equitable Allocation of COVID-19 Vaccine by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,Health and Medicine Division,Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice,Board on Health Sciences Policy,Committee on Equitable Allocation of Vaccine for the Novel Coronavirus Pdf

In response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and the societal disruption it has brought, national governments and the international community have invested billions of dollars and immense amounts of human resources to develop a safe and effective vaccine in an unprecedented time frame. Vaccination against this novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), offers the possibility of significantly reducing severe morbidity and mortality and transmission when deployed alongside other public health strategies and improved therapies. Health equity is intertwined with the impact of COVID-19 and there are certain populations that are at increased risk of severe illness or death from COVID-19. In the United States and worldwide, the pandemic is having a disproportionate impact on people who are already disadvantaged by virtue of their race and ethnicity, age, health status, residence, occupation, socioeconomic condition, or other contributing factors. Framework for Equitable Allocation of COVID-19 Vaccine offers an overarching framework for vaccine allocation to assist policy makers in the domestic and global health communities. Built on widely accepted foundational principles and recognizing the distinctive characteristics of COVID-19, this report's recommendations address the commitments needed to implement equitable allocation policies for COVID-19 vaccine.
