association between the 2008-09 seasonal influenza vaccine and pandemic h1n1 illness during spring-summer 2009: four observational studies from canada. | in late spring 2009, concern was raised in canada that prior vaccination with the 2008-09 trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (tiv) was associated with increased risk of pandemic influenza a (h1n1) (ph1n1) illness. several epidemiologic investigations were conducted through the summer to assess this putative association. | 2010 | 20386731 |
facial protective equipment, personnel, and pandemics: impact of the pandemic (h1n1) 2009 virus on personnel and use of facial protective equipment. | before the emergence of the pandemic (h1n1) 2009 virus, estimates of the stockpiles of facial protective equipment (fpe) and the impact that information had on personnel during a pandemic varied. | 2010 | 20731598 |
seasonal influenza vaccine and increased risk of pandemic a/h1n1‐related illness: first detection of the association in british columbia, canada. | in april 2009, an elementary school outbreak of pandemic h1n1 (ph1n1) influenza was reported in a community in northern british columbia, canada--an area that includes both non-aboriginal and aboriginal residents living on or off a reserve. during the outbreak investigation, we explored the relationship between prior receipt of trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (tiv) and ph1n1-related illness. | 2010 | 20887210 |
