Vaccine effectiveness against influenza hospitalisation in adults during the 20...
Rose, Angela M. C.; Pozo, Francisco; Martínez‐Baz, Iván; Mazagatos, Clara; Bossuyt, Nathalie; Cauchi, John Paul; Petrović, Goranka; Loghin, Isabela I.We conducted a multicentre hospital-based test-negative case–control study to measure vaccine effectiveness (VE) against PCR-confirmed influenza in adult patients with severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) during the 2022/2023 influenza season in Europe. Among 5547 SARI patients ≥18 years, 2963 (53%) were vaccinated against influenza. Overall VE against influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 was 11% (95% CI: −23–36); 20% (...

Rose, Angela M.C.; Nicolay, Nathalie; Sandonis Martín, Virginia; Mazagatos, Clara; Petrović, Goranka; Baruch, Joaquin; Denayer, Sarah; Seyler, LucieIntroduction: The I-MOVE-COVID-19 and VEBIS hospital networks have been measuring COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) in participating European countries since early 2021. Aim: We aimed to measure VE against PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 in patients ≥ 20 years hospitalised with severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) from December 2021 to July 2022 (Omicron-dominant period). Methods: In both networks, 46 hospitals...

Rose, Angela M.C.; Nicolay, Nathalie; Sandonis Martín, Virginia; Mazagatos, Clara; Petrović, Goranka; Niessen, F Annabel; Machado, AusendaIntroduction: Two large multicentre European hospital networks have estimated vaccine effectiveness (VE) against COVID-19 since 2021. Aim: We aimed to measure VE against PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalised severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) patients ≥ 20 years, combining data from these networks during Alpha (March–June)- and Delta (June–December)-dominant periods, 2021. Methods: Forty-six participati...

Melidou, Angeliki; Hungnes, Olav; Pereyaslov, Dmitriy; Adlhoch, Cornelia; Segaloff, Hannah; Robesyn, Emmanuel; Penttinen, Pasi; Olsen, Sonja J.Background: The 2018/2019 influenza season in the WHO European Region was dominated by influenza A (H1N1)pdm09 and (H3N2) viruses, with very few influenza B viruses detected. Methods: Countries in the European Region reported virus characterization data to The European Surveillance System for weeks 40/2018 to 20/2019. These virus antigenic and genetic characterization and haemagglutinin (HA) sequence data were ...
