Method The MEDLINE database was systematically searched up to March 2016 to identify all relevant articles pertaining to fatal cases of anaphylaxis following vaccine administration. Results Six papers pertaining to fatal anaphylaxis following vaccination were found relevant. Mast cell tryptase and to- tal IgE concentration was assessed exclusively in one case. Laryngeal edema was not detected in any of these cases, whereas eosinophil or mast cell infiltration was observed in lymphoid organs. In one case, immunohistochemical in- vestigations using anti-tryptase antibodies allowed pulmo- nary mast cells and degranulating mast cells with tryptase- positive material outside to be identified. Conclusion In any suspected IgE-mediated fatal anaphy- lactic cases, biochemical investigations should be system- atically performed for forensic purposes. Splenic tissue should be routinely sampled for immunohistochemical investigations in all suspected anaphylaxis-related deaths and mast cell/eosinophil infiltrations should be systemati- cally sought out in

It is poised to play an even more dominant role as biological products – preventive vaccines and cutting-edge biotechnology such as monoclonal antibodies– come to the fore. Even before the pandemic, Indian manufacturers produced vast quantities of generic antiviral drugs that turned HIV from a death sentence to a chronic manageable condition in developing countries. India’s global dominance in generic drugs and vaccine manufacturing has earned it the label “Pharmacy of the World”. COVID-19 only strengthens the case for this moniker. So far, India has supplied medicines to 133 countries to fight the pandemic. Six Indian manufacturers have been granted royalty-free licenses by Gilead to manufacture the first antiviral drug approved by the U.S.

  • The Historical Impact of Epidemic Typhus
    THE HISTORICAL IMPACT OF EPIDEMIC TYPHUS by JOSEPH M. CONLON LCDR, MSC, USN [email protected] INTRODUCTION Louse-borne Typhus Fever is undoubtedly one of the oldest pestilential diseases of mankind. Called by many names and confused with other fevers, it is not until the late fifteenth century that it can be recognized with certainty as causing devastating epidemics. With Plague, Typhoid, and Dysentery, it was the scourge of armies and civilian populations throughout the Middle Ages and frequently played a decisive role in wars conducted in Europe from the 15th through the 20th centuries. The manner in which the course of European history has been affected by Typhus epidemics has been graphically portrayed by a number of authors. This paper will attempt a further analysis of the historical impact of Louse-borne Typhus and how its epidemic propagation has led many to regard Pediculus humanus corporis as having a more profound effect on human history than any other animal. EPIDEMIC TYPHUS FEVER (TABARILLO, CLASSIC OR EUROPEAN TYPHUS, JAIL FEVER, WAR FEVER) Causative Agent. Typhus fever is an acute specific infection caused by Rickettsia prowazeki as isolated and identified by DaRocha-Lima in 1916. Named in honor of H. T. Ricketts and L. von Prowazek, both of whom contracted typhus in the course of their investigations and died, R. prowazeki was originally believed to be a virus because of its minute size and difficulty of cultivation. R. prowazeki is now recognized as being morphologically and biochemically a type of bacterium. A rod-shaped microorganism, R. prowazeki is an obligate intracellular parasite whose cell wall contains muramic acid, diaminopimelic acid, and other components similar to those of the gram-negative bacteria.
