Inoculations

Haemophilus influenzae vaccination

Hib vaccines are recommended in all national schedules. The WHO notes that “lack of incidence data should not be used as a reason for delaying the introduction of Hib vaccines.”

Vaccination against meningococcal infection

Vaccination against meningococcal infection in the form of polysaccharide meningococcal vaccines types A and C in persons over 2 years of age is immunogenic and provides protection for at least 3 years (at least 2 years for children); their epidemiological effectiveness is 85-95%.

Leptospirosis vaccine

Leptospirosis vaccine concentrated inactivated liquid polyvalent, Russia - a mixture of inactivated cultures of leptospira of four serogroups. Preservative - formalin. Store at 2-8°.

Anthrax vaccine

Live dry anthrax vaccine for subcutaneous and scarification use - live spores of the STI vaccine strain, lyophilized in a 10% aqueous sucrose solution.

Vaccination against cu fever

Q fever is a zoonosis, common mainly in cattle-breeding regions. It is caused by Coxiella burnetii, which belongs to the γ-subgroup of Proteobacteria. Humans become infected through contact with animals and drinking milk. Vaccination against Q fever is given to people at risk aged 14 to 60 years.

Vaccination against tick-borne encephalitis

Tick-borne encephalitis is caused by a flavivirus, transmitted by ixodid ticks, cases of infection through fresh milk have been described. After a 10-day incubation period, it manifests itself as catarrh, fever, headache, joint pain, and CNS lesions (encephalitis - 30%, meningitis - 60%, meningoencephalitis - 10%). Vaccination against tick-borne encephalitis in endemic areas has led to a decrease in the incidence

Yellow fever vaccination

Yellow fever is common in tropical regions of Africa and South America. Since 1985, 15 major outbreaks of the disease have been recorded, 11 of them in Africa. Since 1991, vaccination against yellow fever (in 24 countries in Africa and 9 in South America) has been included in the Expanded Program on Immunization. In Ukraine and Russia, vaccination against yellow fever is given to people traveling to endemic countries.

Polio vaccination

The global task set by WHO - humanity must enter the third millennium of the new era without poliomyelitis - has not yet been accomplished. Polio vaccination has made it possible to achieve that poliovirus type 2 has not been registered since October 1999, and poliovirus type 3 in 2005 circulated in very limited areas in only 4 countries.

Influenza vaccination in children and adults: contraindications

The flu vaccine has only been included in the National Calendar since 2006. In European countries, a complete record of flu cases is kept, and although it is far from complete, the flu vaccine has led to a decrease in the incidence of the disease.

Cholera vaccination

Cholera is endemic in many countries. Cholera vaccination is carried out when there is a risk of importation in border areas. Two cholera vaccines are used.
