A mixed vaccination strategy against rubella is proposed. We describe how the vaccination strategy was designed with the help of mathematical techniques. The strategy was designed for application in a non-immunized community of the State of São Paulo, Brazil, and was implemented by local health authorities in 1992. This strategy comprises a pulse vaccination campaign, covering the age interval between 1 and 10 years, followed by the introduction of the vaccine in the immunization calendar at 15 months of age. The expected impact of the proposed strategy is discussed.
提出了一种针对风疹的混合疫苗接种策略。我们描述了如何借助数学技术设计该疫苗接种策略。该策略是为在巴西圣保罗州一个未免疫的社区应用而设计的,并于1992年由当地卫生当局实施。此策略包括一次脉冲式疫苗接种活动,覆盖1至10岁的年龄区间,随后在免疫规划中引入15月龄的疫苗接种。讨论了所提出策略的预期影响。
