Analysis of Vaccinal Process Peculiarities in Persons Immunized with Smallpox Live Vaccine in Case of Primary Vaccination and Revaccination
Abstract
Immunization against smallpox may be attended by serious complications. The premises for the differences in postvaccinal reaction intensity are underexplored. In this paper presented is the review of peculiarities of postvaccinal manifestations in members of the Russian population primarily immunized against smallpox as compared to the revaccinated ones. Examined has been the cohort of 217 people, of whom 82 are vaccinated initially, and 135 - repeatedly within the period from 2000 to 2013. Average age of the vaccinated is 40.0 years (ranged 20 to 40). Studied has been severity of vaccine-challenged condition and cutaneous inflammatory vaccinal elements. In case of initial vaccination medium severity has been observed 2.1 times oftener than low one. In case of revaccination - low level of severity has been registered 17.7 times more frequently than the medium one. Hyperemia zone is 2.2 times greater as regards primary vaccination compared to revaccination, zone of induration - 1.9 times. The diameter of the sore is 1.3 and its shedding time is 1.4 times greater and longer, respectively. Thus, initial vaccination follows more severe course and is attended by expressed response in comparison to booster one.
