Abstract

The COVID 19 pandemic has prompted the world to implement drastic prevention methods based on limiting population movements that have an impact on public health policies such as vaccination. The objective of this work was to evaluate the impact of these prevention measures on routine vaccination in hospitals since the advent of the pandemic in Senegal. Methodology: This is a retrospective cross-sectional study carried out in August 2020 in the vaccination unit of the Abass NDAO hospital centre. We compared data from the vaccination unit during the period from March to August of the last three years (2018, 2019 and 2020). The parameter studied was the number of vaccine doses administered for the different periods according to the expanded programme of immunization. Results: For the vaccines administered in the sixth week in April, the number of doses was 36 in 2018, 29 in 2019 and 15 in 2020, i.e. a 50% drop compared to March. In July the number of doses administered was 40 in 2018, 35 in 2019 and 15 in 2020, a reduction of 42% compared to 2019. Conclusion: Measures to fight this pandemic should not make us forget routine vaccination, especially in our resource-constrained countries. It is essential to continue vaccination for children and to identify children who have missed vaccine doses for catch-up. Keywords: COVID19, Vaccination, Impact, Children, Senegal
COVID19对常规免疫的影响:塞内加尔的一项横断面研究
2019冠状病毒病大流行促使世界在限制人口流动的基础上实施严厉的预防方法,这些方法会对疫苗接种等公共卫生政策产生影响。这项工作的目的是评估自塞内加尔出现新冠疫情以来,这些预防措施对医院常规疫苗接种的影响。方法:这是一项回顾性横断面研究,于2020年8月在Abass NDAO医院中心的疫苗接种室进行。我们比较了过去三年(2018年、2019年和2020年)3月至8月期间疫苗接种单位的数据。所研究的参数是根据扩大免疫计划在不同时期接种的疫苗剂量。结果:对于4月第六周接种的疫苗,2018年的剂量为36剂,2019年为29剂,2020年为15剂,与3月相比下降了50%。7月,2018年、2019年和2020年的剂量分别为40剂、35剂和15剂,与2019年相比减少了42%。结论:抗击这一流行病的措施不应让我们忘记常规疫苗接种,尤其是在我们资源有限的国家。至关重要的是,要继续为儿童接种疫苗,并确定错过疫苗剂量的儿童。关键词:新冠肺炎19,疫苗接种,影响,儿童,塞内加尔
