Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Vaccine-Preventable Diseases:

1.	VaccinesIBA 01/01/2020 - "Global vaccination coverage has dramatically improved and mortality rates among children due to vaccine-preventable diseases have been significantly reduced since the creation of the Expanded Programme of Immunization in 1974, the formation of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, in 2000, and the development of the Global Vaccine Action Plan in 2012. " 12/01/1995 - "The results indicate that even in the presence of maternal illiteracy, educating mothers about the vaccines and vaccine preventable diseases may be highly effective in increasing the immunization coverage." 01/01/2021 - "Maintaining the quality and safety of immunization is as important as the efficacy of vaccines in vaccine-preventable diseases (VPD) programs. " 12/01/2019 - "The use of multiple vaccine doses has proven to be essential in providing high levels of protection against a number of vaccine-preventable diseases at the individual level. " 05/01/2015 - "Evidence is considered strong, based on the findings from 108 published articles and 132 conference abstracts showing that immunization information systems are effective in increasing vaccination rates and reducing vaccine-preventable disease through their capabilities to (1) create or support effective interventions such as client reminder and recall systems, provider assessment and feedback, and provider reminders; (2) generate and evaluate public health responses to outbreaks of vaccine-preventable disease; (3) facilitate vaccine management and accountability; (4) determine client vaccination status for decisions made by clinicians, health departments, and schools; and (5) aid surveillance and investigations on vaccination rates, missed vaccination opportunities, invalid dose administration, and disparities in vaccination coverage.

"
9.	Biomarkers (Surrogate Marker)IBA 12/20/2013 - "Immune markers of protection against vaccine-preventable diseases in oral fluid (OF) or blood may generate more accurate measures of effective vaccination history, but questions remain about whether antibody surveys are feasible and informative tools for monitoring immunization program performance compared to conventional vaccination coverage indicators.
