VACCINE PREVENTABLE DISEASES – WAY FORWARD IN NIGERIA Prof G. C. Onyemelukwe FWACP, (MON) 19TH JULY 2013
VACCINATION POLICY IN NIGERIA SINCE EDWARD JENNER – COW POX Mandatory for childhood, social mobilization and health education are very necessary. Child Rights Act vaccination is a right. Niger state Assembly passed a bill in 2010/2011 for compulsory polio vaccination of children. Federal government from 2012purchases all vaccines with donor support of GAVI, WHO, UNICEF, DFID, BILL GATES FOUNDATION, CLINTON HEALTH ACCESS INITIATIVE and other partners. Private sector participation in vaccination. GERIATRIC ACT BY NIGERIA NATIONAL ASSEMBLY PASSED 2009. Abuja Declaration of Africa Union on Tb, HIV and malaria in Africa.
UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE Access for all to appropriate health services at an affordable cost, with highly cost effective prevention activities and therapies accessible to all citizens; Health care financing system mitigate risk of households falling into poverty or suffering large financial losses because of costly health system . Vaccine security involving all stakeholders is a sine qua non
ACCESSIBLITY AND AFFORDABILITY • (a). A wide range of health services, including highly cost- • effective prevention activities and therapies, should be • accessible to all citizens of a give a Countryand • (b). The system of financing healthcareshould mitigate, as • much as possible, the risk that householdswould fall into • poverty or suffer large financial losses as a result of a • costly health problem. The Joint Learning Network for Universal Health Coverage chronicles the challenges and successes of specific reforms within countries, providing a learning platform for senior policy-makers and practitioners in more than a dozen countries.
GOALS OF VACCINATION • Immunity and herd immunity: Herd Immunity is based on the idea that the pathogen will not spread when a significant part of the population has immunity against it. Primary prevention of cancer of cervix and liver possible. Mass immunization. • Eradication of disease: World Health Organization coordinated the global effort to eradicate smallpox globally. Endemic measles, mumps and rubella in Finland eradicated. Polio has been eradicated in most countries except Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nigeria as at 2013. • Individual, group, selected vaccination of at risk groups: E.g rabies vaccination for veterinary workers. • Therapeutic vaccines or vaccination – anti-IgE vaccines in asthma, anti-cancer therapeutic vaccines e.g. for prostate cancer. Passive delivery of monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) against cancers.
FASTER PROGRESS WITH VACCINES TO MDGs(2000-2015) MDG1: END POVERTY AND HUNGER – Vaccines protect from death, disability, free family finances MDG2: Achieve universal primary education – Healthy to immunized to attend school MDG3: Promote gender equality- Healthy children free women MDG4: Reduce Child mortality- Vaccines prevent 2.5 million child deaths per year, 79% in developing countries, Pneumonia Diarrhea Rota virus) kill 3 million. MDG5: Improve maternal health- Material neonatal tetanus vaccines MDG 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria other disease- Vaccinate HIV positives, Pneumonia, Diarrhea reduce transmission. MDG7: Ensure environmental sustainability – Rota virus vaccination reenergizes safe drinking water. MDG8: Develop global partnership for development • - WHO, UNICEF, GAVI, Bill and Melinda Gates, IVAC, CLINTON HEALTH ACCESS • INITIATIVE • - Parliamentary Advocacy and financing for immunization in Nigeria (PAFFIN) • HERFON - Women Advocates for vaccine Access (WAVA) - Nigeria National Vaccine Summit,PAN 2012 • - World Pneumonia Day 2011, 2012. GAVI initiative from 2000 – Save children • lives, access to Immunization.
MATERNAL ANTIBODIES IN BREAST MILK PROTECT THE CHILD FROM ENTEROVIRUS INFECTIONS. Sadeharju K, Knip M, Virtanen SM, Savilahti E, Tauriainen S, Koskela P, Akerblom HK, Hyöty H; Finnish TRIGR Study Group. Pediatrics. 2007 May;119(5):941-6. Protective high maternal antibiotics in serum and breast milk better in breast fed > 2 weeks . SecretoryIgA for mucosal defence of baby . Anti-tetanus transplacental antibodies after maternal immuinization.
BREAST MILK ADVANTAGES • SIMPLE OLIGOSACCHRIDES – Binding sites to intercept bacteria entry into intestinal cell. • 2. MUCINS – Adhere to bacteria, viruses to eliminate them • 3. LACTOFERRIN – Bind iron, unavailable to organisms • 4. B12 BINDING PROTEIN – deprive organisms of Vit B12 • 5. BIFIDUS FACTOR – promotes beneficial Lactobaccilusbifidus growth • 6. INTERFERON – In colostrum, antiviral activity • 7. FIBRONECTIN – In Colostrum, repair of tissues, minimize • inflammation, make phagocytes more aggressive. • 8. INDUCER FACTORS – Induce infants immune system • 9. ENHANCER EFFECT – higher levels of antibodies, cortisol, epidermal • growth factor, nerve growth factor Insulin – like growth factor, • somatomedin C, to close leaky mucosal lining of newborn. • 10. FREE FATTY ACIDS – damage membranes of enveloped viruses e.g. • chicken pox virus • 11. SECRETORY IgA IN URINARY TRACT - Lactoferrin, lysozyme found • in large amounts in urinary tract of breast fed. • 12. Induces increased local production of Lactoferrin
CELLULAR DEFENCES IN BREAST MILK • Immune cells abundant in breast milk – white blood cells, leukocytes 40% are macrophages, manufacture lysozyme that destroy bacteria. • Lymphocyte 10%. • B Lymphocytes produce antibodies. Milk lymphocytes proliferate in presence of Escherichia coli. Produce gamma – interferon, monocytechemotactic factor.

Vaccination-Pentavalent vaccine.e.g.DTPw-HepB-Hib (Quinvaxem) - Hexavalent vaccine e.g. DTPa-HBV-IPV-Hib (Infanrixhexa) - These vaccines are compatible with measles vaccine and induce adequate immunological memory and persistent antibody production against Hib
