The Guillain–Barré Syndrome and the 1992–1993 and 1993–1994 Influenza Vaccines

TL;DR: There was no increase in the risk of vaccine-associated Guillain-Barré syndrome from 1992-1993 to 1993-1994 and for the two seasons combined, the adjusted relative risk of 1.7 suggests slightly more than one additional case of Guillian-B Barré syndrome per million persons vaccinated against influenza.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of Hepatitis B Virus Infection in the United States: Recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices

TL;DR: This report updates and summarizes previously published recommendations from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and CDC regarding the prevention of HBV infection in the United States and provides CDC guidance for postexposure prophylaxis following occupational and other exposures.
Journal Article

Surveillance for safety after immunization: Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS)--United States, 1991-2001.

TL;DR: This report summarizes the adverse events reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) from January 1, 1991, through December 31, 2001, and indicates that the most commonly reported adverse event was fever, which appeared in 25.8% of all reports.
Journal ArticleDOI

Guillain-Barré Syndrome Following Influenza Vaccination

TL;DR: From 1990 to 2003, VAERS reporting rates of GBS after influenza vaccination decreased, and the long onset interval and low prevalence of other preexisting illnesses are consistent with a possible causal association between GBS and influenza vaccine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Safety of trivalent inactivated influenza vaccines in adults: background for pandemic influenza vaccine safety monitoring.

TL;DR: Adverse event reporting rates have been reasonably constant over time and provide useful information if pandemic vaccine is rapidly distributed and pre-licensure data are limited.
