  • (ACIP) General Best Guidance for Immunization
    9. Special Situations Updates Major revisions to this section of the best practices guidance include the timing of intramuscular administration and the timing of clotting factor deficiency replacement. Concurrent Administration of Antimicrobial Agents and Vaccines With a few exceptions, use of an antimicrobial agent does not interfere with the effectiveness of vaccination. Antibacterial agents have no effect on inactivated, recombinant subunit, or polysaccharide vaccines or toxoids. They also have no effect on response to live, attenuated vaccines, except BCG vaccines. Antimicrobial or immunosuppressive agents may interfere with the immune response to BCG and should only be used under medical supervision (for additional information, see www.merck.com/product/usa/pi_circulars/b/bcg/bcg_pi.pdf). Antiviral drugs used for treatment or prophylaxis of influenza virus infections have no effect on the response to inactivated influenza vaccine (2). However, live, attenuated influenza vaccine should not be administered until 48 hours after cessation of therapy with antiviral influenza drugs. If feasible, to avoid possible reduction in vaccine effectiveness, antiviral medication should not be administered for 14 days after LAIV administration (2). If influenza antiviral medications are administered within 2 weeks after receipt of LAIV, the LAIV dose should be repeated 48 or more hours after the last dose of zanamavir or oseltamivir. The LAIV dose should be repeated 5 days after peramivir and 17 days after baloxavir. Alternatively, persons receiving antiviral drugs within the period 2 days before to 14 days after vaccination with LAIV may be revaccinated with another approved vaccine formulation (e.g., IIV or recombinant influenza vaccine). Antiviral drugs active against herpesviruses (e.g., acyclovir or valacyclovir) might reduce the efficacy of vaccines containing live, attenuated varicella zoster virus (i.e., Varivax and ProQuad) (3,4).

  • 1 SARS-Cov-2 Vaccination in Heart and Lung Transplantation, MCS and PH Recommendations from the ISHLT COVID-19 Task Force May 21
    SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination in Heart and Lung Transplantation, MCS and PH Recommendations from the ISHLT COVID-19 Task Force May 21, 2021 Several SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are approved for administration in various countries (Table 1) and are available to select populations based on local recommendations and regulations, including children aged 12 years and above. These include mRNA-based vaccines (Moderna, Pfizer-BioNTech), those utilizing replication deficient viral vectors (Oxford-AstraZeneca, Johnson and Johnson, Sputnik V, Cansino), inactivated virus (Sinopharm, Sinopharm-Wuhan, Sinovac, Bharat) and protein subunits (Novavax, Vector Institute). Since none of the currently available vaccines are based on live replicating viral vectors, all are acceptable for transplant recipients. Thus, we recommend that transplant patients accept any of these vaccines made available to them. Current efficacy data from clinical trials in immunocompetent hosts is variable as noted in Table 1 based on the type of vaccine used; however, reported data in clinical trials thus far demonstrate 100% protection against severe COVID-19 related intensive care or death.[1-5] Real world observational data has demonstrated significant effectiveness of the vaccine in reducing symptomatic disease, hospitalization and death from COVID-19 in various countries ranging between 88-91%.[6-8] To date, nearly 1.59 billion vaccine doses have been administered worldwide.[9] Common adverse events are local to the injection site and related to reactogenicity of the vaccine; importantly
