Pertussis vaccine effectiveness and duration of protection – A systematic review and meta-analysis
2021, VaccineCitation Excerpt :Due to concerns about vaccine safety and efficacy, aP vaccine replaced wP vaccine in the vaccine programs of most developed and many middle-income countries in the late 1990′s [1]. Neither infection nor vaccination provides life-long immunity; outbreaks in older, vaccinated individuals in the 2000 s [4-6] highlighted concerns about the effectiveness of pertussis vaccines over time [6-9]. Previous systematic reviews and meta-analyses (SRMA) estimating pertussis vaccine effectiveness (VE) and waning immunity varied in both inclusion criteria and measured outcomes.
Assessing adolescent immunization options for pertussis in Canada: A cost-utility analysis
2020, VaccineCitation Excerpt :Age-related infection probabilities (10–14, 15–19, 20–24 years) were obtained from national incidence rates prior to introduction of the adolescent Tdap program (0.523%, 0.115%, and 0.028% for respective age groups) [15]. A correction factor (CF = 9) was applied to baseline probabilities to adjust for under-diagnosis implicit with reportable disease data [16,17]. Immunization uptake (63.2%) was obtained from a provincial report regarding immunization coverage of Ontario students [18].
A nested case-control study measuring pertussis vaccine effectiveness and duration of protection in Manitoba, Canada, 1992–2015: A Canadian Immunization Research Network Study
2019, VaccineCitation Excerpt :Disease incidence rose from 1.2 cases per 100,000 people in 2008 to 9.4 cases per 100,000 people in 2012 [5]. Pertussis incidence increased elsewhere around the same time and patients were older and more likely to be fully-vaccinated against pertussis compared to earlier outbreaks [6–8], raising concerns that the immunity conferred by the acellular pertussis (aP) vaccine may wane over time [8–11]. To better understand the limitations of current and past pertussis vaccine programs, we measured the vaccine effectiveness (VE) and duration of protection of both the wP and aP vaccines in Manitoba.
