“…Highest reduction in hospitalizations were reported in children 1-4 years of age with, e.g. a 62% reduction in Germany and 99% in the US [51,159]. In addition, the US reported a decrease in varicella related deaths by 94% compared to pre-vaccine era with a significant reduction few years after vaccination implementation [154,163].…”

“…Varicella incidence in Latin American and Caribbean countries varied from 147 cases per 100,000 population in Venezuela, to 393 cases per 100,000 in Argentina [46]. In the US, varicella hospitalization rates in pre-vaccine era were 5 cases per 100,000 population [51]. Highest hospitalization rates were reported in children 1-4 years of age from 38.6 per 100,000 population in Australia to 172 per 100,000 in Canada [51].…”

“…The World Health Organisation (WHO) has recommended the use of varicella vaccine since 1998 [50,81]. Since then vaccination with either one or two doses was implemented in about 30 countries worldwide, including several European countries (Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, and Spain) [7,46,51,82].…”

Background: Currently Norway does not recommend universal varicella vaccination for healthy children. This study assessed susceptibility to varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in the Norwegian population for the first time. Methods: A national convenience sample of residual sera was tested for anti-VZV IgG by ELISA. We estimated age-specific seropositivity to VZV, controlling for sex and geographical distribution. We assessed differences between the proportions using the chi-square test and multivariable logistic regression. Seroprevalence data were compared to the varicella and herpes zoster-associated consultation rates in patients attending primary healthcare. Results: Although 73.2 % (n = 1,540) of all samples were positive for VZV, only 11.2 % of samples collected from 1-year-olds were seropositive. There was a sharp increase in the proportion of seropositive in 3-and 5-year-olds (40.2 % and 65.4 %, respectively). By the school entry age of 6 years, 69.8 % of children were seropositive. The age-specific annual consultation rate for varicella in primary healthcare peaked in 1-year-olds, with 2,627 cases per 100,000 population. The profile of varicella-related consultations in primary healthcare mirrored the VZV seropositivity profile. The herpes zoster-related consultations in primary healthcare peaked in people over 70 years of age (702 cases per 100,000 population). Conclusions: VZV seroprevalence in Norway was somewhat lower than in some other European countries. The age-specific varicella-related consultation rates in primary healthcare mirrored the age profile of VZV seroprevalence.

“…Hirose et al (2016) identificaram o impacto da vacina varicela nas taxas de internações hospitalares associadas à doença nos países que adotaram sua vacinação universal, demonstrando queda na hospitalização por essa causa. Porém, esses resultados foram obervados após período longo de imunização, dificultando comparações com estudos que analisam o impacto após pouco tempo decorrido da introdução da vacina.…”

Trata-se de pesquisa descritiva, quantitativa e transversal, para analisar o conhecimento acerca da varicela entre profissionais das áreas da educação infantil e da saúde, antes da participação em oficinas de educação em saúde. Os dados foram coletados por meio de questionários autoaplicados e processados no programa Epi Info ® , considerando-se para análise estatística nível de significância de 5%. Participaram 92 profissionais de oito Centros de Educação Infantil e duas Unidades de Saúde da Família de Londrina (PR). Mais de 52,0% dos profissionais da saúde e 74,0% da educação desconheciam a doença. Para 76,0% dos profissionais da educação e 38,1% dos da saúde a varicela não apresenta complicações, e a etiologia viral reportada foi de 75,0% e 50,0%, respectivamente. A varicela ainda é uma doença prevenível, pouco conhecida entre ambas as categorias profissionais, que emerge para a adequada assistência e redução da transmissibilidade mediante programas de educação em saúde, além da imunização.

This is a descriptive, quantitative and cross-sectional study to analyze the knowledge of child education and health professionals about chickenpox, previous to a health education workshop they attended. Data were collected through self-completion questionnaires and analyzed using the Epi Info ® software, considering 5% statistically significant level. There were 92 participants from eight Child Day Care Centers and two Basic Health Care Centers in Londrina -PR. More than 52.0% of health professionals and 74.0% of child education professionals didn't know the disease. To 76.0% of child education professionals and 38.1% of health professionals, chickenpox does not present complications and its viral etiology was reported in 75.0% and 50.0% of professionals, respectively. Chickenpox is a disease that can still be prevented, little known among these two categories of professionals, and requires adequate assistance and reductions of transmissibility through health education programs, besides immunization.
