美国主要医学组织包括美国儿科学会、美国家庭医学会、美国妇产科学会和美国传染病学会周三联合发布秋季流感、新冠和RSV疫苗接种指南1。此举旨在应对特朗普政府不断变化的免疫建议所造成的混乱12。美国食品药品监督管理局已于上周批准了今年更新的新冠疫苗版本1,流感疫苗随之推出接种2。
医学组织建议6个月及以上的人群接种流感疫苗,特别强调65岁以上老年人、孕妇和有基础疾病人群应优先接种1。针对新冠疫苗,虽然美国食品药品监督管理局目前仅批准用于高危人群,但医学组织建议所有成人接种1。根据数据,新冠疫苗在去年秋季将老年人住院风险降低53%1。此外,冬季还会带来另一种可预防的病毒威胁——RSV疫苗被推荐用于75岁及以上成人,或50至74岁有增加风险的人群1。
医学组织表示,疫苗建议方面存在很多混乱1。特朗普政府官员去年曾在没有新科学证据的情况下开始推动一些长期疫苗建议的回退1。最新更新的莫德纳mFlusiva流感疫苗预防60至64岁人群症状性疾病的有效率比标准疫苗提高27%1。
Leading American medical organizations jointly released updated vaccination guidance on Wednesday, seeking to clarify immunization recommendations amid public confusion over shifting directives from the Trump administration.12 The American Academy of Pediatrics, American Academy of Family Physicians, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and American Society of Infectious Diseases coordinated the guidance covering fall flu, COVID-19, and RSV vaccines.1
The medical groups recommend flu vaccination for people aged six months and older, with particular emphasis on those 65 and older, pregnant women, and individuals with underlying medical conditions.1 An updated flu vaccine version from Moderna demonstrated a 27 percent improvement in preventing symptomatic disease in people aged 60 to 64 compared to standard formulations.1 For COVID-19, while current vaccines are only approved for high-risk populations, the medical organizations recommend all adults receive vaccination.1 Last fall's COVID vaccines reduced hospitalization risk by 53 percent in elderly patients and decreased emergency room visits among very young children.1 RSV vaccination is recommended for adults aged 75 and older, or those between 50 and 74 with increased risk factors.1
The FDA approved updated vaccine versions last week, with flu shots already in distribution and COVID vaccines rolling out.12 Dr. Sandra Fryhofer stated that "there is a lot of confusion and murkiness around vaccine recommendations."1 The coordinated guidance directly addresses confusion created by the Trump administration's push to roll back long-standing vaccine recommendations without new scientific evidence to support such changes.1
