Gastroenteritis Infectious Diarrhea Treatment Journal article https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1136-bmjgh-2023-014719-e90724cb/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1136-bmjgh-2023-014719-e90724cb/ Tue, 30 Apr 2024 00:00:00 GMT Twenty of thirty countries applying for vaccine support received financial approval from the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization as of March 2024, demonstrating widespread interest. However, limited RTS,S/AS01 availability prevents some approved countries from receiving required doses, raising vaccine equity concerns. Malaria Vaccination Health policy Transmission dynamics Journal article https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1056-nejmoa1811400-81a96cf1/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1056-nejmoa1811400-81a96cf1/ Thu, 06 Jun 2019 00:00:00 GMT The trial addresses whether an added drug strategy could improve child outcomes during seasonal malaria chemoprevention in two African countries. The primary endpoint was serious illness or death, making the question relevant to child health and malaria-control programs. Malaria Trachoma Treatment Surveillance Transmission dynamics Journal article https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1016-j-vaccine-2017-12-056-a8edc181/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1016-j-vaccine-2017-12-056-a8edc181/ Thu, 01 Nov 2018 00:00:00 GMT The findings document the real-world impact of rotavirus vaccine in one of the first African countries to introduce RV5 nationally, demonstrating reductions in rotavirus-associated hospitalizations and supporting vaccine policy in similar settings.
