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) |

HMONG 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. |

used up. |

HMONG 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. |
