Photo by MILAN KOVACEVIC Above: Students walk by Conrad Prebys Aztec Student Union at San Diego State University, Sept. 24, 2016. San Diego State University announced Thursday that it will require all incoming students be fully vaccinated against meningococcal serogroup B beginning with the fall 2019 semester. Students will be required to present proof of vaccination by the 10th day of classes in their first semester. Those who fail to do so will receive a hold on their account, rendering them unable to register for classes or alter their schedule until they confirm with the university they have received the full series of meningococcal B vaccines. RELATED: SDSU Announces Possible Meningitis Exposure During Weekend Greek Events The decision is partly a reaction to the university's three confirmed cases of meningococcal meningitis during the most recent academic year.

CDC changes to pneumonia vaccine could hurt older Americans | TheHill - The Hill

-
Image
My organization has long advocated for the health and well-being of older Americans and the policy decisions that help maintain access to tools that help achieve those goals as we all age. When I learned about a pending decision to potentially eliminate a vaccination that is critical in keeping older adults healthy, I knew I had to speak up. I’m especially committed to this cause because I, myself recently lived through a bout of pneumococcal disease, which made me so sick, there were some moments that I thought I would die. In the next several weeks, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices — a sub-committee at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention may decide to drop a standing recommendation for a pneumococcal vaccine for adults over the age of 65. That may not sound like something that the average American needs to worry about, but here’s why I’m concerned.

Suncoast residents urged to get vaccinated against measles - WWSB

In most people, measles causes fever, runny nose, cough and a rash all over the body. However, a very small fraction of those infected can suffer complications such as pneumonia and a dangerous swelling of the brain. According to the CDC, for every 1,000 children who get measles, one or two will die from it. No deaths have been reported this year. http://bit.ly/2I9Fppd

Adjuvanted Flu Vaccine Showed 'Encouraging' Results - Medscape

-
Image
New figures showed "encouraging" effectiveness for the newly licensed adjuvanted trivalent influenza vaccine (aTIV) offered to people aged 65 years and over during the 2018-19 flu season. Public Health England (PHE) estimated that aTIV, given to the majority in this age group, provided approximately 62% protection against the flu strains circulating during the winter. That compared with 49.9% for those aged 65 and over who received all types of influenza vaccine. Vaccine uptake in 2018 to 2019 in England for those aged 65 and older was 72%, slightly lower than that seen in 2017 to 2018. Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 was the main strain circulating, although influenza A(H3N2) also circulated later on, PHE said. Low to moderate levels of influenza activity were seen during the season, according to PHE's Surveillance of influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses in the UK , although impact on secondary care in terms of hospitalisations and ICU admissions was high.

Number of Measles Cases in the US Higher Than It's Been in 27 Years - Live Science

-
Image
The number of measles cases reported in the U.S. is at a 27-year high. The last time measles cases soared to this level was in 1992, with 963 cases reported for the entire year. We're not even halfway through 2019, and 971 cases have been reported, according to a statement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In 2000, measles was declared eliminated from the U.S. But recently, this highly contagious disease has made a comeback — in part due to non-vaccinated clusters of people. Amid the numerous measles outbreaks across the country, scientists are warning that the U.S. is moving backward on the path to elimination . Measles outbreaks have plagued New York City and New York's Rockland County, for example, for nearly the past 8 months. (The CDC defines an "outbreak of measles" as three or more cases.) If cases continue to climb through the summer and into the fall, the U.S. could lose its measles elimination status, according to the statement

What actually changes anti-vaccine minds - Washington Examiner

-
Image
The ongoing measles outbreak across the country shows that the anti-vaccination movement is powerful enough to create a legitimate public health crisis. There are now 940 reported cases of measles in 26 states. This is the country’s largest outbreak of the disease in a quarter century. The size of this outbreak tells us that arguments in favor of vaccination are not working as well as we need them to. This is not because the pro-vaccine arguments are not scientifically sound (they are) or not well-publicized (again, they are). We are at a societal stalemate for one reason: People who argue in favor of vaccines are making rational arguments to people who have already proven themselves not to be moved by reason. Anti-vaxxers are not going to be swayed by scientific facts. If they were the kind of people who could be convinced by science, they wouldn’t be anti-vaxxers. This is not to say that they can never be persuaded. Instead, productive conversation starts with something other t

Interviews with Orthodox Jewish moms reveal barriers to measles vaccination - Healio

-
Image
This paper provides an important commentary on the ongoing measles outbreak spreading across the entire globe — present in over 170 countries, encompassing hundreds of thousands of cases worldwide, with thousands of deaths since its onset and no end in sight. Although the authors focus on one small but important U.S. segment of this raging epidemic, the points they made are generalizable to other populations across the country and the world as well. Any insular community — especially one with very large numbers of young children in a relatively circumscribed geographic location, with multiple opportunities through school, religious or social contexts for mingling — will be a haven for the spread of a highly contagious disease like measles. This has nothing to do with religion because measles outbreaks have occurred throughout the U.S. and the world in almost every ethnic, religious or nonreligious group. Indeed, as an orthodox rabbi, I can attest to the fact that there is no Jewish

With measles on the rise, Health Department pushes vaccinations - knoxpages.com

-
MOUNT VERNON – The Knox County Health Department is urging local residents to make sure they’re vaccinated for measles, given a recent national outbreak that has spread to four neighboring states. Public information officer Pam Palm told the health board Wednesday that the Knox County Health Department has been working with other central Ohio health departments to develop an outreach plan. This will include a public advisory, issued to all local healthcare providers, as well as educational outreach targeted towards Knox County’s Amish population (which tends to travel more and receive fewer vaccinations, Palm said). “The main thing is it’s just educating people,” said Palm, adding that immunization from measles means two doses of the MMR vaccine. “We’ve had a couple scares where we did think that somebody had measles and it turned out to be something else, which is good because that can be pretty detrimental. Right now, we’re lucky. But the feeling is, with all these states aroun

In an effort to curb a Meningococcal B outbreak on campus, San Diego State University is requiring all new, incoming students show proof of vaccination by the 10th day of the fall semester. The university declared an outbreak on campus last semester after a third student contracted the bacterial disease. The school said A class registration hold will be placed on the accounts of those who do not provide proof of immunization. “The decision supersedes new California State University (CSU) immunization policies by rolling out the complete set of immunization requirements one full year earlier and making menB a required vaccine, as opposed to a recommended one,” the university said.

Stocks of flu vaccine have run low in Ballarat pharmacies - Ballarat Courier

-
Image
Many pharmacies across Ballarat have run out of influenza vaccines amid "insane" demand for vaccinations as the flu season hits hard and early. UFS pharmacy clinical advisor Peter Fell said his chain ran out of flu shots in Ballarat this week "though we lasted a bit longer than most others". The pharmacy chain has secured another 1000 doses of vaccine which should be available by the end of next week. "The uptake has been extraordinary this year," he said. "At our bigger pharmacies we've been doing up to 50 or 60 vaccinations a week over the past month to six weeks. It got to the point where we were having to roster extra staff as we had one pharmacist tied up doing vaccinations." In Ballarat there have been 162 laboratory-confirmed cases of influenza so far this year, compared to 20 for the same period last year, but the number of likely to be much higher with many flu victims not being formally tested. There were just 84 confirmed cases of

New push to develop world's first vaccine against the deadly Strep A bacteria - EurekAlert

-
Image
30 May 2019, SEOUL, South Korea - The International Vaccine Institute (IVI) and Australia's Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI) will coordinate a global push to free the world of Group A Streptococcus (Strep A), the contagious bacteria that kills half a million people every year and is developing resistance to antibiotics. The British biomedical research foundation, the Wellcome Trust, has granted $2.25 million to IVI and MCRI to coordinate world efforts to develop a vaccine against Strep A and find manufacturers. Director General of IVI, Dr Jerome Kim, said that Strep A, a bacterial pathogen, is one of the most deadly infectious diseases - ranking with tuberculosis (TB), HIV, and malaria but globally very little had been invested in Strep A research. "Strep A is one of the main causes of death from infectious diseases, claiming 500,000 lives per year; however few people are aware of it," Dr Kim said. "Strep A usually begins with a sore throat, but

Illinois Valley vaccine rates are high, but 100% compliance is the goal - LaSalle News Tribune

-
Image
Dr. Kara Fess has been licensed to practice medicine in Illinois since 2002. She’s seen a lot. There is, however, one thing she’s never done: Treated a case of measles. And she’d like to keep it that way. To her patients and to parents of small children, she has a message: Please get vaccinated and get your kids vaccinated. The Illinois Valley has not had a measles outbreak (knock on wood), but local physicians report the nationwide outbreaks have not gone unnoticed locally. Inquiries and walk-in requests for information have risen at local offices and this has been a welcome development for health-care providers frustrated by the anti-vaccine camp. Fess is among the physicians who said that while inoculation rates haven’t risen — vaccinations rates were strong even before measles made the nightly news — people are inquiring more frequently about getting their shots. “We have had multiple inquiries from patients, especially parents of young children, about risk of expo
