Popis: | The program of cohort immunization of 0-1-year-old children with a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) has been going on in Saint Petersburg with the help of the Rostropovich‑Vishnevskaya Foundation since June 2013. The need in cohort immunization against pneumococcal infection is substantiated by effectiveness of use of PCVs in previous years, when immunization therewith resulted in 9.5-fold and 1.8-fold reduction in the incidence rate of community-acquired pneumonias and acute otites mediae, respectively, at pediatric institutions. The joint program involved use of PCV13. 38,000 vaccinal doses confirm high safety thereof both for separate and combined administration. The article provides analysis of vaccination organization and demonstrates importance of individual work with the population and training of all medical professionals. |
