Current epidemiological characteristic of chickenpox in Russia
Introduction. The varicella vaccine introduction in the National immunization schedule is planned in Russia by 2020. Since 2013, vaccination against chicken-pox has been carried out according to epidemiological indications and as part of the regional immunization program in some regions. Material...

When introducing vaccination, it is necessary to strengthen the epidemiological surveillance of chicken-pox and its vaccine prophylaxis in order to timely respond to unfavourable trends of the shift in the age of chicken-pox occurrence.Natalia AfoninaIrina MIHEEVA Asociatia de Biosiguranta si BiosecuritatearticlechickenpoxvaccinationpreventionMedicineRScienceQENFRRORUOne Health & Risk Management, Vol 1, Iss 1, Pp 12-21 (2020) |

Introduction. The varicella vaccine introduction in the National immunization schedule is planned in Russia by 2020. Since 2013, vaccination against chicken-pox has been carried out according to epidemiological indications and as part of the regional immunization program in some regions.
Material and methods. A descriptive epidemiological study has been carried out to assess the current epidemiological features of chicken-pox in Russia. A retrospective analysis of the incidence distribution in the time, age and territorial aspects was carried out, as well as taking into consideration the number of doses administered to certain population groups. Materials for research include the official data on the incidence of chicken-pox and the quantity of varicella vaccine doses administered in 2006-2018 in the country in general, and in two megalopolises – Moscow and St. Petersburg.
