        The Collaboration for Increasing Influenza Vaccination in Children (CIIVIC): a meeting report

        The burden of seasonal influenza disease in Australian children is substantial, especially for those with medical comorbidities including chronic cardiac, respiratory, neurological and immunosuppressive conditions. Influenza is more likely to be severe in children with comorbidities compared to previously healthy children (e.g. more frequent and longer hospitalisation, more frequent intensive care unit admission and requiring respiratory support). Direct protection against influenza by vaccination is critical for children with comorbidities and remains the most effective tool for influenza prevention. ...

        Estimating the excess burden of pertussis disease in Australia within the first year of life, that might have been prevented through timely vaccination
