Vaccine effectiveness against COVID-19 related hospital admission in the Netherlands by medical risk condition: A test-negative case-control study
CONCLUSION: Although VE against hospitalization was 78% and increased to 89% after boosting during the Delta-dominant study period, VE was lower in certain high risk groups, for which indirect protection or other protective measures might be of added importance.PMID:38688804 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.04.017 (Source: Vaccine)

Effects of parental childhood cultural health environment on children's influenza and COVID-19 vaccination status
We examined whether the childhood cultural health environment (CHE) of parents (measured by self-reported regular attendance at doctor and dentist visits during childhood) was associated with flu and COVID-19 vaccination of their children. Using 2023 survey data from 397 US parents and causal inference methods, we estimated the average causal effect of parental CHE on flu vaccination rates (0.16 [95 % confidence interval: 0.06,0.27]) and COVID-19 (0.14 [95 % confidence interval: 0.04,0.24]), indicating that if all parents had attended regular doctor/dentist visits as children, flu and COVID-19 vaccination rates in children...

Association between Covishield vaccine and menstrual disturbance. Findings from a cross-sectional study among participants of Zero TB cohort in India
CONCLUSION: Menstrual problems were reported by Covishield vaccinees, but they were minor and reversible within three months and do not constitute a ground for vaccine hesitancy. Studies designed to assess causal link taking care to avoid selection bias or confounding are needed.PMID:38679512 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.04.063 (Source: Vaccine)

Collective good and individual choice: Perceptions on COVID-19 vaccine mandate among COVID-19 vaccinated individuals
CONCLUSION: Support for a COVID-19 vaccination mandate is controversial even among vaccinated people. Identifying and understanding cultural and contextual factors that underlie differences in attitudes and beliefs about COVID-19 vaccination mandates is essential to advance dialogue and inform educational health campaigns to increase COVID-19 vaccination rates.PMID:38679513 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.04.052 (Source: Vaccine)

Post-marketing surveillance of 10,392 herpes zoster vaccines doses in Australia
CONCLUSIONS: While rates of AEFIs was higher with HZ/su than ZVL, most AEFIs were mild and did not require medical attention. Our findings support the change in vaccine recommendations and the use of HZ/su in immunisation programs.PMID:38677792 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.03.066 (Source: Vaccine)

The role of religion and COVID-19 vaccine uptake in England
CONCLUSION: This research indicates a potential influence of religious affiliation on vaccine uptake, highlighting the need for more carefully-tailored public health programmes. Recognizing the diverse associations of different religious affiliations on health behaviour is important for shaping future vaccination campaigns and policy interventions. Engaging with religious communities and leaders may be one method through which to deal with vaccine hesitancy and improve public health.PMID:38677793 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.04.006 (Source: Vaccine)
