Early information and trust in the Swedish child health center nurses increased willingness to vaccinate against rotavirus infectionsAbstract Aim: Rotavirus vaccines are effective against severe infections, but have a modest impact on mortality in high-income countries. In 2014, Stockholm was the first Swedish County to introduce the rotavirus vaccine to all newborns. In a nearby future the vaccine will be included in the Swedish immunization program. Parental knowledge and attitudes towards vaccines are crucial for high vaccination coverage. This study aimed to identify why parents refused to let their infant have the vaccination or were unsure. Methods: This cross-sectional study was based on 1,063 questionnaires completed by the parents of newborn children in 2014, during four weeks. Stepwise logistic regression was used to identify the main predictors. Results: Most (81%) parents intended to vaccinate their child against the rotavirus, while 19% were unwilling or uncertain. Parents with less education and children up to five weeks of age were more likely to be unwilling or uncertain about vaccinating their child. Factors associated with a refusal or uncertainty about vaccinating were: not having enough information about the vaccine, no intention of accepting other vac-cines, paying little heed to the child health nursesu2019 recommendations, thinking that the rotavirus was not a serious illness and not believing that the vaccine provided protection against serious forms of gastroenteritis. Conclusion: Early information, extra information for parents with less education and close positive relationships between parents and child health nurses were important factors in high rotavirus vaccination rates. This knowledge could facilitate the implementation of rotavirus vaccine in the Swedish immunization program in the near future.

This is the third edition of this publication which contains the latest information on vaccines and vaccination procedures for all the vaccine preventable infectious diseases that may occur in the UK or in travellers going outside of the UK, particularly those immunisations that comprise the routine immunisation programme for all children from birth to adolescence. It is divided into two sections: the first section covers principles, practices and procedures, including issues of consent, contraindications, storage, distribution and disposal of vaccines, surveillance and monitoring, and the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme; the second section covers the range of different diseases and vaccines.

The seventh edition of the Canadian Immunization Guide was developed by the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI), with the support ofthe Immunization and Respiratory Infections Division, Public Health Agency of Canada, to provide updated information and recommendations on the use of vaccines in Canada. The Public Health Agency of Canada conducted a survey in 2004, which confi rmed that the Canadian Immunization Guide is a very useful and reliable resource of information on immunization.

The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.

This practical guide contains seven modules targeted at district and health facility staff. It intends to meet the demands to improve immunization services so as to reach more infants in a sustainable way, building upon the experiences of polio eradication. It includes materials adapted from polio on planning, monitoring and use of data to improve the service, that can be used at any level. Revising the manual has been a team exercise. There are contributions from a large number of experts, organizations and institutions. This new edition has seven modules. Several new vaccines that have become more readily available and used in recent years have been added. Also the section on integration with other health interventions has been expanded as exciting opportunities and experiences have become evident in the years following the previous edition. Module 1: Target diseases and vaccines Module 2: The vaccine cold chain Module 3: Ensuring safe injections Module 4: Microplanning for reaching every community Module 5: Managing an immunization session Module 6: Monitoring and surveillance Module 7: Partnering with communities.

Rotavirus is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis in children. In the United Kingdom, it causes significant short-term morbidity, and places a substantial burden on the health service. Two rotavirus vaccines have completed clinical trials and are being considered for routine infant vaccination. We investigated the cost-effectiveness of a universal immunisation programme in the United Kingdom, in order to inform the decision of whether to add one of the vaccines to the national vaccine schedule. A cohort model was constructed to compare the costs and outcomes of vaccination. Direct and indirect costs were considered separately. From the health care provider's perspective, the cost of rotavirus-related hospital admissions, nosocomial hospital infections, Accident and Emergency admissions, GP consultations and calls to a telephone health information service (NHS Direct) were considered. We also considered loss in quality adjusted life years (QALYs) for patients and their carers due to fatal and non-fatal episodes of rotavirus gastroenteritis. The economic value of lost productivity for those caring for children with rotavirus was also taken into consideration. Results of the model showed that the cost per QALY of an immunisation programme varied considerably depending on the perspective taken. Including QALY losses to carers had the effect of decreasing the cost effectiveness ratio by 56%, while including productivity losses in carers resulted in an additional 8% decrease. This has important implications for evaluating other childhood vaccines such as the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. Similar results and influences were observed for other European countries, and will also be discussed.
