Background: Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine is weakened Mycobacterium bovis based preparation that provides protective effects and immunotherapy against many ailments and may be tested against SARS-COV-2. Herein, we compare the prevalence of COVID-19 in countries with and without mandatory BCG...

A more definitive analysis is needed to the third vaccine for special populations, the BCG vaccine. New approaches are needed to reach older adults, who could benefit from certain vaccinations but who have low levels of immunization. Federal efforts doubled rates of vaccination against influenza ...
The analysis of financial implications included a projection of cold chain needs and costs associated with the introduction of each new vaccine, as well as the financial outlays required by the government.

because they use antigens not shared by any of the BCG vaccine strains or by the more common species of NTM (e.g.M. avium) [3]. Besides having higher specificity and sensitivity than the TST, IGRAs correlate better with surrogate measures of exposure toM. tuberculosis[4–7] and have a...

We did not explicitly represent existing Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) immunisation programmes as we assumed protection conferred by BCG to be reflected in calibration targets. As measures of vaccine impact, we ...
