6. • Immunization-
– Immunization is the process whereby a
person is made immune or resistant to an
infectious disease, typically by the
administration of a vaccine.
• Vaccine-
A vaccine is any preparation intended to
produce immunity to a disease by
stimulating the production of antibodies..

7. Immunizing agents
1) Vaccines
• Live attenuated:
Bacterial: BCG, Typhoid, plague
Viral : Oral polio , Yellow fever, Measles, Mumps,
Rubella, Influenza
• Inactivated or killed vaccines
Bacterial: Typhoid, Cholera, Pertusis, Plague
Viral : Rabies, Salk (Polio), Influenza , Hepatitis B,
Japanese encephalitis
2) Toxoids : Diphtheria, Tetanus

8. Physiological basis
ACQUIRED IMMUNITY
– HUMORAL IMMUNITY
– CELL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY

9. Antibody response after exposure

10. Central Role of Helper T Cells

11. ADJUVANTS
A vaccine adjuvant is a component that potentiates the
immune responses to an antigen and/or modulates it
towards the desired immune responses.

12. Aims of immunization
• Eradication
– State where disease and its causal agent have been
removed from natural environment
• Elimination
– Reduction to zero cases or reduction in indegineous
sustained transmission of infection in geographical
region.
• Control
– Reduction of illness outcomes and limitation of the
disruptive impacts associated with outbreaks of
disease in communities, schools, and institutions.

13. Why we need adult vaccines ?
Burden of Adult Vaccine-Preventable Disease
Influenza: 10-20% of US population annually
200,000 hospitalizations
36,000 deaths (average)
Pneumococcal: 2,000-5000 meningitis
40,000+ bloodstream infections
150,000-300,000 pneumonia
Pertussis: 1 million
Cervical cancer: 10,000
Shingles: 1 million
Death from vaccine-preventable diseases: 43,000

14. WHY ADULTS?
The burden
Vaccination gap
High risk group
Chronic medical conditions

15. Recommendation for adult
immunization
• ACIP(advisory committee on immunization
practices)

18. Influenza vaccine

19. • 2009, update
WHO
199 countries
officially reported
over 482,300
laboratory
confirmed cases of
the influenza H1N1
6,071 deaths

21. • Annual vaccination
• Age 6 months and older
• Early autumn before influenza outbreak
• Influenza A and influenza B
• Influenza type/origin/isolate number/year
of isolation/subtype

22. Live vaccine
• Intranasal via spray
• 2-49 yrs of age
• Non pregnant
• Has currently
– Circulating Strain of influenza A and b
– Cold adapted attenuated master strain
• Protection >90% in young children
• Don’t give antiviral drugs for 2 weeks

23. Killed vaccine
• Inactivated vaccine
• 6 months or older
• Has influenza A and B
– Previous year circulating strain
– Anticipated strain circulating this year
• Immunocompromised
• Protection 50-80% is expected.**

24. Contraindication
 Egg allergy
 ?Pregnant women
 ?Gullian barre syndrome(if within 6 wks)

25. • Vaccine was found to be 33% effective in preventing
total respiratory illness (influenza-like illness and
clinically diagnosed pneumonia). In prevention of
pneumonia alone, vaccine was 43% effective. The
estimate for prevention of pneumonia rose to 55% if the
period under consideration was limited to the time of
peak influenza activity. Given the number of eligible
homes and the cohort methodology used, the results
support continuation of current policy, encouraging use
of vaccine in all nursing home residents.

31. Harrison figure
Changes in invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) incidence, by serotype group,
among children <5 years old (first) and adults >65 years old (second), 1998–2007.
*7-Valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) was introduced in the United
States for routine administration to infants and young children during the second half
of 2000. (Reprinted with permission from Pilishvili et al, 2010.)

32. Conclusion
The recent introduction of universal PCV vaccination in children has led
to a change in the epidemiology of IPD in adults. The incidence of IPD
associated with PCV serotypes is expected to decrease and that
associated with other serotypes is expected to increase in adults.
Despite a reduction in the incidence of IPD, vaccinating the elderly and
at-risk adults with PPV23 in Germany against IPD and NBPP remains a
cost-effective strategy because of its broad serotype coverage.
