Kissling, Esther; Hooiveld, Mariëtte; Martínez-Baz, Iván; Mazagatos, Clara; William, Naoma; Vilcu, Ana-Maria; Kooijman, Marjolein N.; Ilić, MajaIntroduction: In July and August 2021, the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant dominated in Europe. Aim: Using a multicentre test-negative study, we measured COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) against symptomatic infection. Methods: Individuals with COVID-19 or acute respiratory symptoms at primary care/community level in 10 European countries were tested for SARS-CoV-2. We measured complete primary course overall VE by ...
Vaccine effectiveness against influenza A(H3N2) and B among laboratory‐confirme...
Rose, Angela M.C.; Kissling, Esther; Gherasim, Alin; Casado, Itziar; Bella, Antonino; Launay, Odile; Lazăr, Mihaela; Marbus, Sierk; Kuliese, MonikaBackground: Influenza A(H3N2), A(H1N1)pdm09 and B viruses co-circulated in Europe in 2017-18, predominated by influenza B. WHO-recommended, trivalent vaccine components were lineage-mismatched for B. The I-MOVE hospital network measured 2017-18 seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness (IVE) against influenza A(H3N2) and B among hospitalised patients (≥65 years) in Europe. Methods: Following the same generic pro...
Effectiveness of influenza vaccine against influenza A in Europe in seasons of ...
Kissling, Esther; Pozo, Francisco; Buda, Silke; Vilcu, Ana-Maria; Rizzo, Caterina; Gherasim, Alin; Krisztina Horváth, Judit; Brytting, MiaIntroduction: Influenza A(H3N2) viruses predominated in Europe in 2016–17. In 2017–18 A(H3N2) and A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses co-circulated. The A(H3N2) vaccine component was the same in both seasons; while the A(H1N1)pdm09 component changed in 2017–18. In both seasons, vaccine seed A(H3N2) viruses developed adaptations/alterations during propagation in eggs, impacting antigenicity. Methods: We used the test-negative ...
2015/16 I-MOVE/I-MOVE+ multicentre case control study in Europe: moderate vacci...
Kissling, Esther; Valenciano, Marta; Pozo, Francisco; Vilcu, Ana-Maria; Reuss, Annicka; Rizzo, Caterina; Larrauri, Amparo; Horváth, Judit KrisztinaBackground:During the 2015/16 influenza season in Europe, the co-circulating influenza viruses were A(H1N1)pdm09 and B/Victoria, which was antigenically distinct from the B/Yamagata component in the trivalent influenza vaccine. Methods:We used the test negative design in a multicentre case–control study in twelve European countries to measure 2015/16 influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) against medically-attend...
Repeated seasonal influenza vaccination among elderly in Europe: effects on lab...
Rondy, Marc; Launay, Odile; Castilla, Jesus; Costanzo, Simona; Puig-Barberà, Joan; Gefenaite, Giedre; Larrauri, Amparo; Rizzo, CaterinaIn Europe, annual influenza vaccination is recommended to elderly. From 2011 to 2014 and in 2015-16, we conducted a multicentre test negative case control study in hospitals of 11 European countries to measure influenza vaccine effectiveness (IVE) against laboratory confirmed hospitalised influenza among people aged ≥65years. We pooled four seasons data to measure IVE by past exposures to influenza vaccination....

Rondy, Marc; Larrauri, Amparo; Casado, Itziar; Alfonsi, Valeria; Pitigoi, Daniela; Launay, Odile; Syrjänen, Ritva K; Gefenaite, Giedre; Machado, AusendaWe conducted a multicentre test-negative case-control study in 27 hospitals of 11 European countries to measure 2015/16 influenza vaccine effectiveness (IVE) against hospitalised influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and B among people aged ≥ 65 years. Patients swabbed within 7 days after onset of symptoms compatible with severe acute respiratory infection were included. Information on demographics, vaccination and underlying...
