Post-exposure prophylaxis for the prevention of measles: A systematic review.

Background: In susceptible individuals, post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is often recommended following exposure to measles, however the data that these recommendations are based on are limited. The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate the efficacy/effectiveness and safety of immunoglobulins (Ig) or measles-containing vaccine (MCV) for the prevention of measles.
Methods: Prospective studies evaluating the use of Ig or MCV as PEP in susceptible individuals exposed to measles were eligible for inclusion.

Many measles endemic countries with suboptimal coverage levels still rely on vaccination campaigns to fill immunity gaps and boost control efforts. Depending on local epidemiological patterns, national or targeted campaigns are implemented, following which post-campaign coverage surveys (PCCSs) are conducted to evaluate their performance, particularly in terms of reaching previously unvaccinated children. Due to limited resources, PCCS surveys are designed to be representative at coarse spatial scales, often masking important heterogeneities in coverage that could enhance the identification of areas of poor performance for follow-up via routine immunization strategies.

To prevent widespread epidemics such as influenza or measles, it is crucial to reach a broad acceptance of vaccinations while addressing vaccine hesitancy and refusal. To gain a deeper understanding of Japan's sharp increase in COVID-19 vaccination coverage, we performed an analysis on the posts of Twitter users to investigate the formation of users' stances toward COVID-19 vaccines and information-sharing actions through the formation. We constructed a dataset of all Japanese posts mentioning vaccines for five months since the beginning of the vaccination campaign in Japan and carried out a stance detection task for all the users who wrote the posts by training an original deep neural network.

National Key Laboratory of Intelligent Tracking and Forecasting for Infectious Diseases (NITFID), National Immunization Programme, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing, China.
Background: Since rubella was incorporated into the national disease surveillance system in 2004, rubella incidence has changed dramatically. This study analyzed the impact of immunization strategies on the age-specific and sex-specific incidence of rubella in China from 2004 to 2023 to inform efforts to accelerate rubella elimination.
Methods: Annual rubella-containing vaccine (RCV) coverage levels, reported rubella cases and incidence, and vaccination status of cases were obtained from the National Immunization Program Information Management System, the National Notifiable Diseases Reporting System, and the Measles Surveillance System, and used to describe temporal trends.
