TYPE: External Link Update on invasive meningococcal vaccination for Canadian children and youth (CPS Position Statement)
Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) is serious, often resulting in fulminant sepsis or meningitis. IMD in Canada is primarily attributable to serogroups B and C. There are routine programs for serogroup C vaccine at 12 months of age, with some jurisdictions routinely providing additional earlier doses. Adolescents routinely receive a booster dose of serogroup C vaccine or of a quadrivalent (serogroups A, C, W and Y) vaccine. Serogroup B vaccines are not recommended for routine use pending further data on the efficacy and duration of protection from the available vaccine. However, children at increased risk for IMD should start immunization for serogroups B and C as soon as possible, assuming that they are at least two months of age.
Meningococcal infection is serious, often resulting in fulminant sepsis or meningitis. There are two main types of meningococcal conjugate vaccine currently available in Canada: serotype C meningococcal conjugate, and quadrivalent conjugate for serotypes A, C, Y, and W-135. The immunological characteristics that inform ongoing immunization policies, as well as some of the limits of current knowledge, are presented.

TYPE: External Link 'Nosodes' are no substitute for vaccines (CPS Position Statement)
A growing antivaccine movement in Canada and elsewhere is hearing more about an unproven homeopathic therapy, ‘nosodes’, as an alternative to routine vaccines. The present statement defines nosodes and describes limitations for their use in children. There is scant evidence in the medical literature for either the efficacy or safety of nosodes, which have not been well studied for the prevention of any infectious disease in humans. Recommendations to change the labelling on these products to reflect such limitations are made.
