Objective: To evaluate the safety of enterovirus 71（EV71）inactivated vaccines produced by Wuhan Institute of Bio Products through learning the incidence of adverse events following immunization（AEFI）in children aged 6 months to 3 years old after vaccination. Methods: According to the national requirement for vaccine safety monitoring program，data of AEFI cases after inoculated EV71 vaccines from September 2017 to October 2018 in Zhejiang Province was collected by combining active and passive monitoring. Demographic characteristics，space distribution，dose and incidence of AEFI were analyzed. Results: A total of 107 503 children were included in this study，of which 27 173 were actively monitored and 80 330 were passively monitored. The monitoring results showed that 288 cases of AEFI occurred after inoculated EV71 vaccines，the reported incidence rate was 267.90/100 000. Of 288 cases，266 cases had common reactions（247.43/100 000），14 cases had abnormal reactions（13.02/100 000）and 8 cases had complications（7.44/100 000）；145 cases were passively monitored（180.51/100 000）and 143 cases were actively monitored（526.26/100 000）；150 cases were males and 138 cases were females，with the males to females ratio of 1.09∶1. The AEFI of EV71 vaccines were reported in all the cities of Zhejiang Province，with Jinhua，Taizhou and Hangzhou ranking the top three and accounting for 50.69% of all the reported cases. About 202 cases of AEFI（70.14%）occurred after the first dose of EV71 vaccines，and 163 cases（56.60%）occurred on the day of inoculation.Most of common reactions were fever，swelling and sclerosis. The harm of the reported abnormal reactions was mild，with 8 cases of anaphylactic rash and no other serious abnormal reactions were found. Conclusion The reported incidence rate of AEFI of the domestic EV71 vaccine in children aged from 6 months to 3 years is 267.90/100 000，without serious abnormal reactions，suggesting that the EV71 vaccine is safe.

Objective: The objective of this study was to analyze the disease burden of influenza in schools and child care settings in rural areas of Hangzhou. Methods: Hospital visit influenza cases aged 3-17 years in hospitals that reported based on influenza surveillance system from 2016 to 2018 in Chun′an county, Hangzhou city were selected as study subjects and a total of 294 confirmed cases of influenza were selected using system sampling method. Questionnaires were designed to investigate the basic information and data on inpatients and outpatients among, health care and life quality, etc.. Direct and indirect economic burden and disability adjusted life year (DALY) were analyzed and compared among different age groups. Results: The mean age of investigated subjects was (8.88±3.92) years. A total of 143 (48.64%) investigated cases were male. In total of 283 (96.26%) cases were outpatients. The total economic burden was 124 743.95 CNY. The mean economic burden was 424.30 CNY per person. The mean direct and indirect economic burden was 361.33 and 62.97 CNY per person respectively. The difference of the mean direct, indirect and total economic burden per person between different age group was statistically significant (P<0.001). The 3-5 years age group showed the highest economic burden with the median value of direct, indirect and total economic burden per person being 276.24, 50.98 and 321.26 CNY, respectively, while the 12-17 years age group showed the lowest values with 175.30, 26.54, 201.79 CNY, respectively. The DALY of 294 influenza cases was 1.18, and the median of burden strength was 3.21 DALY/thousand. The difference of the burden of strength between different age group influenza case was statistically significant (P<0.001), of which the 12-17 years age group showed the highest value with 4.25 DALYs/thousand while the 3-5 years age group showed the lowest value with 2.60 DALY/thousand. Conclusion The disease burden of influenza was heavy in schools and kindergartens in rural areas of Hangzhou city, with the cases aged from 3 to 5 years showing higher economic burden and cases aged from 12 to 17 years showing greater burden strength.

OBJECTIVETo investigate pathogens and molecular-epidemiology characteristics of viral meningoencephalitis in the monitoring sites of Zhejiang province, 2013.

METHODSCerebrospinal fluid and/or stool specimens were collected from suspected patients admitted to the monitoring hospitals in southern and northern Zhejiang province. Such specimen were subject to real-time qPCR for the detection of Human enterovirus (HEV), Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), Mumps virus (MuV), Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV). HEVs were isolated using the RD and Hep-2 cell lines, while VP1 genes from all HEV-positive isolates or RNA-positive specimen were amplified, sequenced, for homology and evolution analysis.

RESULTS92 (38.5%) of the 239 samples collected from 229 patients were detected as virus nucleic acid positive, including 87 HEV positive samples, 1 MuV positive, 2 HSV positive, and 2 CMV positive; of the 87 HEV positive samples, 38 were further determined to be Coxsackievirus (CV) and 49 as Echovirus (E). 56 HEV strains were isolated from 239 (23.4%) samples. From the 31 cerebral fluid specimen of nucleic acid positive yet virus isolation negative, the most specimen were identified with E9 (9 specimen), followed by CVA9 (8 specimen); the viral serotype of Zhejiang province HEV were CVA9, CVB4, CVB5, E6, E7, E9, E11, E14, E16, E25 and E30, respectively. Predominant epidemic strains identified at southern and northern Zhejiang province were CVB5 and E6 respectively. The phylogenetic analysis of VP1 gene showed that all the HEV isolates in Zhejiang province were HEV-B.

CONCLUSIONThe HEV-B was the main pathogen for viral meningoencephalitis in Zhejiang province in 2013, including 11 serotypes, while E7 was the first time to be isolated in Zhejiang province. The predominant isolates were CVB5 and E6 in southern and northern Zhejiang province respectively. The positive rate of viral nucleic acid detection was significantly higher than that of viral isolation. Regular EV isolation method was exposed to the risk of missing-detection of E9 and CVA9.

Objective: To evaluate the post-marketing safety profiles of the inactivated enterovirus type 71 (EV-A71) vaccine (Vero cell) after routine inoculation. Methods: Eleven cities of Zhejiang Province, Fengtai district of Beijing, Qinnan district, two counties as Pingle and Pingguo of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and Dongtai city of Jiangsu Province were selected as the field sites. A total of 45 239 subjects were enrolled in this study from children who seeked the vaccination of EV-A71 vaccine during the period from July, 2016 to June, 2018. Different sampling method were adopted in different sites. All vaccinated children were invited to participate in the study in Fengtai and Dongtai, however, systematic sampling method were adopted in other sites. Active surveillance was conducted and information about adverse reactions (ARs) occurred in 30 min, 3 d and 30 d following each dose of EV-A71 immunization was collected by field observation, phone-call or face-to-face interview. The incidence of ARs in different types, symptoms and grades were described. Results: In total, there were 45 239 children who received 71 243 doses EV-A71 vaccine. The overall incidence of ARs was 1.079% (769 doses), with the highest incidence of 1.182% (177/14 973) in 5-11 month group and the lowest incidence of 0.849% (18/2 119) in ≥ 36 month group among different age groups. There was a higher incidence in solicited ARs, which was 1.047% (746 doses). The incidences of grade 1 and grade 2 ARs were also higher, which were 0.404% (288 doses) and 0.554% (395 doses), respectively. No grade 4 ARs occurred. The doses of the first and the second vaccination was 40 736 and 30 507, respectively, and the incidences of ARs were 1.281% (522 doses) and 0.810% (247 doses). Also, the incidences of ARs were 0.091% (37 doses) and 0.043% (13 doses) in local, and 1.168% (476 doses) and 0.760% (232 doses) in system. The symptoms of ARs after the two doses of vaccination were basically the same. Redness at the injection site was the most common local ARs after each dose vaccination, with doses of 24 and 11, while fever was the most common systemic ARs, with doses of 362 and 190. Moreover, ARs mainly occurred in 30 min to 3 d after each dose vaccination, with incidence of 1.016% (414 doses) and 0.698% (213 doses) in the first and second dose, respectively. Conclusion The ARs had a low incidence after vaccination in children and most were mild or moderate. EV-A71 vaccine with good safety is suitable for inoculation in a large scale.

Objectives: To evaluate the safety of inactivated enterovirus A71(EV-A71) vaccines after large-scale immunization in the community. Methods: We selected EV-A71 susceptible people (healthy children) aged 6-59 months in vaccination clinics from 89 counties in Zhejiang Province between April 2016 and March 2018. All local and systematic adverse actions were collected by 30 min on-site inspection, within 3 days and 4-30 days follow-up. Chi-square test and Fisher′s exact test were used to compare the difference of AEs incidence in various characteristics among two groups. Results: A total of 71 663 doses of vaccines were included for active safety analysis, which included 37 331 doses in boys and 34 332 doses in girls. Among all the doses, children aged 6 to 11 months, 12 to 23 months and 24 to 59 months were received 13 707, 32 639 and 25 317 doses respectively. The incidence of adverse reactions within 30 min, 3 days and 4-30 days were 0.33% (239 doses), 1.58% (1 133 doses) and 0.34% (244 doses) respectively. Adverse reactions within 3 days were 1 372 doses, with a incidence of 1.91%; among all the cases, 539 doses (0.75%) were grade 1, 677 doses (0.94%) were grade 2 and 156 doses (0.22%) were grade 3, no grade-4 adverse reaction was reported. The common local adverse reactions were redness, swelling and pruritus, with the incidence rates were 0.05% (39 doses), 0.02% (16 doses) and 0.02% (12 doses), respectively, while the most common systemic adverse reaction was pyrexia with an incidence of 1.19% (856 doses), followed by diarrhea and anorexia with the incidence rates were 0.15% (104 doses) and 0.13% (90 doses) respectively. Conclusion Most adverse actions of EV-A71 vaccines were mild and moderate and majority of them were common adverse actions. No new adverse reactions were found in the study.
