Immunization [noun]

It raises the possibility that delaying the immunization of children could make them a reservoir of the virus in the population, which could continue to seed further outbreaks.

Some lacked the proper medical documents and child immunizations required to return, and school staff members were working with them.

Balancing the timing of cancer treatment and immunization may be a consideration in some cases.

To record who’s getting vaccines, many states have retrofitted existing systems for tracking children’s immunizations.

In some places, the unclear relationship between immunization and reopening has helped fuel a vaccine rollout to teachers marked by confusion, conflicting approaches and uncertainty over supply, as is the case in many states nationwide.

In the United States and the world, multiple vaccines will need to be deployed to reach the immunization levels needed to reach herd immunity, which is estimated to be upward of 70 percent of the population.

The Norwegian Medicines Agency is seeking to address fears that taking the vaccine might be too risky, after 33 people in the country aged 75 and over died following immunization, according to the agency’s latest figures.

“There is more population-scale seroprevalence in India than probably anywhere else in the world, and the role of immunization at best is to tip the system over into herd immunity if it has not already gone,” Shah says.

Now it’s the case for one of the most complex immunization campaigns in history.

Also, delays in vaccinations for things like measles, fueled by school closures and suspended immunization campaigns in dozens of countries, could cause outbreaks of serious but otherwise preventable diseases.
