Influenza Vaccination Vaccine effectiveness Health policy Journal article https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1016-j-ttbdis-2026-102673-9fdde805/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1016-j-ttbdis-2026-102673-9fdde805/ Thu, 18 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT Findings suggest that an acute-phase glial biomarker in CSF may help identify tick-borne encephalitis patients at risk of persistent cognitive deficits, which is relevant given the frequency of long-term cognitive sequelae reported in this cohort. Tick-borne encephalitis Cohort study https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1016-j-vaccine-2026-128593-9785ac97/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1016-j-vaccine-2026-128593-9785ac97/ Fri, 01 May 2026 00:00:00 GMT Rising regional disease incidence contrasts with the exclusion of the prophylactic agent from official immunization schedules, highlighting the need for occupational-specific interventions and financial support mechanisms to mitigate transmission risk.

COVID-19 SARS Treatment Vaccination Travel medicine Journal article https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-2807-1560-7917-es-2021-26-9-1900763-51795d14/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-2807-1560-7917-es-2021-26-9-1900763-51795d14/ Thu, 04 Mar 2021 00:00:00 GMT This paper is relevant to genomic epidemiology and outbreak investigation because it describes the use of sequence-based typing in Swedish hepatitis A surveillance. It provides literature context on how molecular data can help organize cluster detection work. Hepatitis A Hepatitis B Hepatitis C Hepatitis D Hepatitis E Outbreak investigation Surveillance Genomic epidemiology Genomic study https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1093-cid-ciw529-4078fd52/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-1093-cid-ciw529-4078fd52/ Sat, 12 Nov 2016 00:00:00 GMT Mortality reduction is a key WHO vaccine impact indicator. The findings highlight gaps in long-term enumeration of residual infant deaths and maternal seroprevalence data, particularly in low- and middle-income countries considering maternal pertussis vaccination. More precise immune correlates of infant protection against death would strengthen program planning. Pertussis Diphtheria Tetanus Vaccination Surveillance Meta-analysis https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-2807-ese-15-35-19651-en-b9605ba4/ https://globalinfectiousdisease.com/research/articles/10-2807-ese-15-35-19651-en-b9605ba4/ Thu, 02 Sep 2010 00:00:00 GMT The findings provide a model-based comparison of vaccination strategies for controlling a simulated smallpox outbreak and may inform analysis of vaccination policy in comparable modeled settings. The abstract does not establish effectiveness in actual outbreaks or surveillance data.

The authors propose that wild bird screening could serve as a sentinel system to forecast poultry outbreaks. Influenza H5N1 Surveillance Outbreak investigation Transmission dynamics Journal article
