|
| This translation does not contain the following
CDC updates: |
|
| • |
|
Information was added about MMRV vaccine, tied to the March 14 MMWR, regarding increased risk of certain adverse events, including febrile seizures, with MMRV when compared with MMR and varicella vaccines given separately. Aside from two boxes containing information about MMRV, both VISs are identical to the previous editions. |
|
|
|
| • |
|
The new VISs should be used when MMRV is given; but the existing stocks of the individual MMR and varicella VISs may be used when the vaccines are given separately. |

VIS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This translation does not contain the following
CDC update: |
|
| • |
|
The updated VIS reflects the fact that Ixiaro is now the only available vaccine for Japanese encephalitis. Minor changes
concern patients younger than 17 (who can no longer be advised to get JE-VAX) and recommendations for booster doses. See the
Note to Providers (also accessible from the main VIS page) for more information on these topics. Existing stocks of the
previous (3/1/10) Ixiaro VIS may still be used, although it refers to JE-VAX as still being available. |

| CHINESE TRANSLATION OF THE JANUARY 30, 2008 MULTI-VACCINE VIS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This translation does not contain the following
CDC update: |
|
| • |
|
IMulti-vaccine VIS update. An updated interim edition of the pediatric multi-vaccine VIS, dated September 18, 2008, has been posted. It has been made consistent with the recently updated rotavirus VIS by noting the availability of two rotavirus vaccines in the "Routine Childhood Vaccines" section and adding "irritability" to the mild problems listed for rotavirus in the "Vaccine Risks" section. Otherwise, the VIS is identical to the 1/30/08 edition. Providers using the multi-vaccine VIS when administering Rotarix should begin using the new edition now. When Rotarix is not administered, the older edition may be used until stocks are used up. (9/18/08) |

CHINESE TRANSLATION OF THE SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 PCV7 VIS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This translation does not contain the following
CDC update: |
|
| • |
|
The CDC posted an updated interim PCV VIS on 12/9/08. The main reason is to incorporate recent changes in recommendations for 2-4 year olds, but there are other changes throughout as well. There are no changes in contraindications or adverse events, but to prevent parents from getting confused about the differences in indications (especially when the vaccine is administered to 2-4 year olds) it would be best for providers to start using the new version right away. Existing stocks CAN still be used temporarily if immediately switching to the new version is a problem. |

|
CHINESE TRANSLATION OF THE JANUARY 1, 2000 POLIO - IPV VIS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This translation does not contain the following
CDC update: |
|
| • |
|
This edition does not differ significantly from the previous edition, particularly with regard to contraindications and
adverse events. CDC encourages use of a new VIS upon publication; however, existing stocks of the previous edition may be
used up. |
|
|
|
|
CHINESE TRANSLATION OF THE NOVEMBER 18, 2008 TD/TDAP VIS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This translation does not contain the following
CDC updates: |
|
| • |
|
There are minor wording changes throughout, and a conversion to the new VIS format. The main reason for the change is to
incorporate updated ACIP recommendations regarding children 7 through 9 years of age, adults 65 and older, and pregnant
women; and to add a paragraph about the risk of syncope. Because of this addition to the "risks" section, CDC encourages
providers to begin using the updated edition as soon as possible. |

| Thanks to the California Department of Health Services and the San Francisco Department of Public Health for their translations. |
