The objective of this review was to investigate the efficacy, effectiveness and safety of HPV vaccination in women undergoing conisation compared with those not receiving a HPV vaccination.
This report presents pooled COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) estimates for the first, second and third booster doses (compared to complete primary vaccination with no booster) against hospitalisation due to COVID-19 and COVID-19-related death in resident populations ≥50 years of age living in the community.
In 2023, significant increases in the number of measles cases and outbreaks were observed globally, including in 40 of the 53 countries of the European region, and in at least ten EU/EEA countries.
This report presents pooled COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) estimates for the first, second and third booster doses, against hospitalisation due to COVID-19 and COVID-19 related deaths in resident populations ≥50 years of age, living in the community.
This e-learning course aims at increasing understanding of the drivers and barriers of vaccine acceptance. You will learn how to design targeted strategies to increase vaccine uptake through behaviour change.
The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant of concern (VOC) is rapidly replacing SARS-CoV-2 Delta in most European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) countries, and is broadly following a west-to-east progression.
The risk to public health posed by the spread of the Omicron VOC in the context of ongoing Delta VOC transmission in the EU/EEA is assessed in this update.
The number of countries reporting SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant of concern (VOC) cases continues to increase globally, with a total of 352 confirmed cases reported by 27 countries as of 16.00 on 1 December 2021, including 70 confirmed cases reported by 13 European Union and European Economic Area (EU/EEA) countries.
A SARS-CoV-2 variant belonging to Pango lineage B.1.1.529, with a high number of S-gene mutations compared to the original virus was detected at the beginning of November 2021. On 26 November 2021 the variant was designated a variant of concern (VOC) and assigned the label Omicron by the World Health Organization (WHO).
