Preventing respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease in children

In 1957, a virus recovered from infants with lower respiratory tract illness (LRTI) was named respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) for its ability to form multinucleated cells (syncytia) in cell culture ( 1). Early epidemiologic studies in high-income countries described the spectrum of RSV disease, including pneumonia, bronchiolitis (a characteristic wheezing LRTI), otitis media (middle ear infection), and apnea (pauses in breathing) in very young infants. Later studies demonstrated that RSV infection causes substantial disease in young children globally and that the burden of RSV in high-income countries is only a small fraction of the global burden. There is an urgent and universal need to develop products to reduce child mortality and morbidity through prevention of RSV disease. Fortunately, substantial progress has been made in the development of several promising RSV vaccines and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to achieve this goal.

COVID-19 and Vaccination Campaigns as Western Plots in Pakistan: Government Policies, (Geo-)politics, Local Perceptions, and Beliefs

Sadique); independent researcher ( S. Ali) [B]oth during the pandemic and in normal times, vaccination campaigns in low-resource settings face multiple challenges, especially when factors like (geo)politics are in play. Vaccination encounters multiple context-specific challenges that substantially affect its uptake. Rumours and conspiracy theories have long been affecting vaccination programmes in Pakistan, where only 51% of children had all age-appropriate vaccinations as of 2019. In this country, socio-cultural, economic, and (geo)political factors significantly shape local perceptions around vaccine administration. Likewise, natural disasters and health emergencies, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, impact immunisation endeavours by interrupting routine vaccination. Drawing on qualitative research, this article focuses on government responses to COVID-19 and their effects on vaccination programmes and on the myths and rumours that underlie local people s resistance to vaccinati

Child mortality

Child mortality May 1, 2021 In Pakistan, the neonatal mortality rate is at least 45 percent per 1,000 births. On the other hand, the under-five mortality rate is 67 percent per 1,000 children. Pakistan is also one of the two countries that are still trapped in the polio epidemic. Also, 14 percent of children, in our country, die from pneumonia and 25 percent die from measles, tetanus, and other vaccine-preventable diseases. A lot of these deaths could have been avoided, had the relevant authorities carried out proper vaccination programmes. A vaccine helps a child’s immune system to fight against preventable diseases. There are certain state-backed vaccination programmes that provide free vaccine doses. For example, the Expanded Program on Immunization, which was launched in the late 1970s, provides vaccines against at least eight vaccine-preventable diseases to children below 23 months of age. But since we’re living in a society where socio-cultural taboos dominate, these va
