    Abstract Background: Data on SARS-CoV-2 vaccine effectiveness to reduce transmission of infection in household settings are limited. We examined the effects of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines on Delta variant transmission within households in an infection-naïve population.
    Methods: This was a population-based data linkage cohort study in the Greater Sydney Metropolitan Area, New South Wales, Australia based on cases observed in June-November 2021. In households with ≥1 confirmed COVID-19 case, we calculated adjusted odds ratios (aOR) and 95% Confidence Intervals (95% CI) for the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission, by vaccination status (unvaccinated, partially vaccinated, fully vaccinated, or waning) and type of vaccines (mRNA or vector-based) received by both index cases and household contacts.
    Findings: In 20,651 households with a single index case, 18,542 of 72,768 (25%) household contacts tested PCR-positive ≤14 days after their respective index case. Household contacts with partial, full, or waning mRNA vaccination had aORs of 0.46 (95% CI 0.40-0.52), 0.36 (95% CI 0.32-0.41) and 0.64 (95% CI 0.51-0.80) compared to unvaccinated contacts, while for vector vaccines the corresponding aORs were 0.77 (95% CI 0.67-0.89), 0.65 (95% CI 0.55-0.76), and 0.64 (95% CI 0.39-1.05). Full mRNA-vaccination in index cases compared to non-vaccination was associated with aORs between 0.09 and 0.21 depending on the vaccination status of household contacts.
    Interpretation: Full vaccination of household contacts reduced the odds to acquire infection with the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant in household settings by two thirds for mRNA vaccines and by one third for vector vaccines. For index cases, being fully vaccinated with an mRNA vaccine reduced the odds of onwards transmission by four-fifths compared to unvaccinated index cases. Full vaccination offered stronger protection than partial vaccination, particularly for mRNA vaccines, but with reduced effects when the last vaccination preceded exposure by ≥3 months.

    Abstract Introduction: We analysed Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) data as at 3 April 2022 for children, adolescents and adults for the calendar year 2021, with data on trends from previous years also presented.
    Children: 'Fully vaccinated' coverage in Australian children in 2021 was 0.6-0.8 of a percentage point lower than in 2020 at the 12-month (94.2%) and 60-month (94.0%) age assessment milestones, but stable at the 24-month milestone (92.1%). Due to the lag time involved in assessment at milestone ages, 'fully vaccinated' coverage figures for 2020 and 2021 predominantly reflect vaccinations due in 2019 and 2020, respectively, and hence show a small impact on childhood coverage in the first year of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. 'Fully vaccinated' coverage in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (hereafter respectfully referred to as Indigenous) children was 0.7-1.5 percentage points lower in 2021 than 2020 at the 12-month (91.6%), 24-month (90.1%) and 60-month (96.3%) milestones, although 2.3 percentage points higher than children overall at 60 months. Influenza vaccination coverage in children aged 6-59 months was approximately 20 percentage points lower in 2021 than 2020, both for children overall (26.5%) and for Indigenous children (22.5%). 'On time' vaccination (within 30 days of the recommended age) was up to two percentage points lower in 2021 than 2020 for vaccines due at 4 and 6 months of age, suggesting possible pandemic impacts, but was similar or higher for vaccines due at 12 months of age. While on-time vaccination in Indigenous children has improved progressively since 2012, it remained 6-13 percentage points lower than in children overall in 2021. 'Fully vaccinated' coverage at the earlier milestones (3 months after due date of last scheduled vaccine) of 9, 15, 21 and 51 months was 1.5-2.8 percentage points lower for children living in the least advantaged residential area quintile than the most advantaged, a similar disparity as in 2020. Coverage at the earlier milestones was 2.3-10.0 percentage points lower for Indigenous children living in remote areas than in major cities and regional areas, with disparity at 21 months of age 2.1-2.2 percentage points higher in 2021 than in 2020, and 1.2-2.1 percentage points higher at 51 months.
    Adolescents: In 2021, a total of 80.3% of girls and 77.2% of boys (and 73.3% and 66.2% of Indigenous girls and boys) had completed the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination schedule by 15 years of age, 0.2-0.4 of a percentage point lower than 2020 (1.7-1.8 percentage points for Indigenous), reflecting vaccinations due in school programs prior to the pandemic with possible pandemic impact on catch-up vaccination. However, the proportion of adolescents completing the two-dose HPV vaccination schedule within a calendar year was 15.3 percentage points lower in 2021 than 2020 and 26.9 percentage points lower than in 2019, likely due to pandemic-related disruption to school-based programs. Additionally, 87.3% of adolescents (83.8% for Indigenous) had received the recommended booster dose of diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (dTpa) vaccine by 15 years, and 76.1% (66.7% for Indigenous) the recommended meningococcal ACWY vaccine dose by 17 years of age.
    Adults: Zoster vaccine coverage in 2021 remained relatively low, at just over 30%, in adults aged 70 years, but increased to 47% in those aged 71-79 years, reflecting ongoing catch-up vaccination. Coverage of 13vPCV was low in 2021, reaching 17.2% in adults aged 70 years and 20.1% in those aged 71-79 years. Influenza vaccination coverage in adults in 2021 was progressively higher with increasing age, reaching 62.1% in the 65-74 years age group (64.6% in Indigenous) and 68.5% in the 75+ years age group (67.7% in Indigenous). Influenza vaccine coverage for other National Immunisation Program (NIP)-eligible Indigenous adult age groups was only 22.0% for those aged 20-49 years, and 43.5% for those aged 50-64 years. By the end of 2021, a total of 91.6% of people in Australia aged 16+ years had received a second dose of a COVID-19 vaccine (71.8% for Indigenous), with over 99% of those aged 70+ years having received a second dose.
    Conclusions: Vaccination coverage in children and adolescents remained relatively high in 2021, although with some evidence of COVID-19 pandemic impacts, particularly on receipt of two doses of HPV vaccine within the same calendar year. It will be important to ensure catch-up vaccination in children and adolescents occurs. A strengthened focus on adult vaccination is needed, as coverage remained suboptimal in 2021. The impact of mandatory reporting of all NIP vaccinations from mid-2021, on completeness of AIR data, has not yet been formally evaluated.

    Abstract Using linked public health data from Australia to measure uptake of COVID-19 vaccination by infection status, we found coverage considerably lower among infected than uninfected persons for all ages. Increasing uptake of scheduled doses, including among previously infected persons after the recommended postinfection delay, is needed to reduce COVID-19 illness rates.

    Abstract Background: Professional interpreters working in palliative contexts improve patient care. Whilst literature identifies psychological distress in other healthcare professionals, research into emotional effects on professional interpreters in this highly emotive setting is limited. Isolating emotional responses may enable targeted interventions to enhance interpreter use and improve wellbeing. Timely evidence is needed to urgently familiarise the profession with issues faced by these valuable colleagues, to affect practice.
    Aim: Describe the emotional effects on professional interpreters of interpreting adult palliative care conversations. Collate recommendations to mitigate negative emotional effects.
    Design: We performed a rapid review of studies identifying emotional effects on professional interpreters of interpreting adult palliative conversations. Rapid review chosen to present timely evidence to relevant stakeholders in a resource-efficient way. Thematic analysis managed using NVivo. Quality appraisal evaluated predominantly using CASP checklists. Reported using PRISMA guidelines. PROSPERO registration CRD42022301753.
    Data sources: Articles available in English on PubMed [1966-2021], MEDLINE [1946-2021], EMBASE [1974-2021], CINAHL [1981-2021] and PsycINFO [1806-2021] in December 2021.
    Results: Eleven articles from the USA (5), Australia (3), Canada (2) and UK (1). Eight interview-based, two online surveys and one quality improvement project. Themes included (1) Identifying diversity of emotional effects: emotions including stress, discomfort, loneliness. (2) Identifying factors affecting interpreters' emotional responses: impact of morals, culture and role expectations; working with patients and families; interpreter experience and age. (3) Recommendations to mitigate negative emotional effects: pre-briefing, debriefing and interpreter/provider training.
    Conclusion: Professional interpreters experience myriad emotional responses to palliative conversations. Role clarity, collaborative working and formal training may alleviate negative effects.

    Abstract Background: There is increased emphasis on incorporating patient perspectives and patient-relevant endpoints in drug development. We developed a conceptual model of the impact of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) on patients' lives and evaluated the content validity of the Hepatitis B Quality of Life (HBQOL) instrument, a patient-reported outcome tool for use in clinical studies, as a patient-relevant endpoint to measure health-related quality of life in patients with CHB.
    Methods: A literature review of qualitative studies of patient experience with CHB and concept elicitation telephone interviews with patients with CHB in the United Kingdom were used to develop a conceptual model of the experience and impact of living with CHB. The content validity of the HBQOL was evaluated using cognitive debriefing techniques.
    Results: The qualitative literature review (N = 43 publications) showed that patients with CHB experience emotional/psychological impacts. During concept elicitation interviews (N = 24), fatigue was the most commonly reported symptom, and most participants were worried/anxious about virus transmission and disease progression/death. A conceptual model of patients' experiences with CHB was developed. The conceptual relevance and comprehensibility of the HBQOL were supported, though limitations, including the lack of a self-stigma item and recall period, were noted for future improvement.
    Conclusions: The conceptual model shows that patients with CHB experience emotional/psychological impacts that affect their lifestyles, relationships, and work/schooling. The cognitive debriefing interviews support the content validity of the HBQOL as a conceptually relevant patient-reported outcome measure of health-related quality of life.

    Abstract Objectives: We evaluated the frequency of moderate and severe adverse events following coadministration of seasonal influenza vaccine (SIV) versus placebo with COVID-19 vaccines among adults to support practice guidelines.
    Methods: FluVID is a participant-blinded, phase IV, randomised control trial. On the same day as the participant's scheduled COVID-19 vaccine, participants were randomised to receive SIV or saline placebo; those assigned placebo at visit one then received SIV a week later, and vice versa. Self-reported adverse events were collected daily for seven days following each visit. The primary endpoint was any solicited adverse event of at least moderate severity occurring up to seven days following receipt of SIV or placebo. This was modelled using a Bayesian logistic regression model. Analyses were performed by COVID-19 vaccine type and dose number.
    Results: Overall, 248 participants were enrolled; of these, 195 had received BNT162b2 and 53 had received mRNA1273 COVID-19 vaccines according to national guidelines. After randomisation, 119 were assigned to receive SIV and 129 were assigned to receive placebo at visit one. Adverse events were most frequently reported as mild (grade 1) in nature. Among 142 BNT162b2 booster dose one and 43 BNT162b2 booster dose two recipients, the posterior median risk difference for moderate/severe adverse events following SIV versus placebo was 13% (95% credible interval [CrI] -0.03 to 0.27) and 13% (95%CrI -0.37 to 0.12), respectively. Among 18 mRNA1273 booster dose one and 35 mRNA1273 booster dose two recipients, the posterior median risk difference of moderate/severe adverse events following influenza vaccine versus placebo was 6% (95%CrI -0.29 to 0.41) and -4% (95%CrI -0.30 to 0.23), respectively.
    Conclusion: Adverse events following SIV and COVID-19 co-administration were generally mild and occurred with similar frequency to events following COVID-19 vaccine alone. We found no evidence to justify routine separation of SIV and COVID-19 vaccine doses.

    Abstract Aim: Mortality from acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has declined, increasing the pool of survivors at risk of later development of heart failure (HF). However, coronary reperfusion limits infarct size and secondary prevention therapies have improved. In light of these competing influences, we examined long-term trends in the risk of HF hospitalization (HFH) following a first AMI occurring in Scotland over 25 years.
    Methods and results: All patients in Scotland discharged alive after a first AMI between 1991 and 2015 were followed until a first HFH or death until the end of 2016 (minimum follow-up 1 year, maximum 26 years). A total of 175 672 people with no prior history of HF were discharged alive after a first AMI during the period of study. A total of 21 445 (12.2%) patients had a first HFH during a median follow-up of 6.7 years. Incidence of HFH (per 1000 person-years) at 1 year following discharge from a first AMI decreased from 59.3 (95% confidence interval [CI] 54.2-64.7) in 1991 to 31.3 (95% CI 27.3-35.8) in 2015, with consistent trends seen for HF occurring within 5 and 10 years. Accounting for the competing risk of death, the adjusted risk of HFH at 1 year after discharge decreased by 53% (95% CI 45-60%), with similar decreases at 5 and 10 years.
    Conclusion: The incidence of HFH following AMI in Scotland has decreased since 1991. These trends suggest that better treatment of AMI and secondary prevention are having an impact on the risk of HF at a population level.

    Abstract Purpose: This study evaluated screening tasks able to identify children with medical conditions or disabilities who may benefit from physical literacy.
    Method: Children completed ≤20 screening tasks during their clinic visit and then the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy (2nd edition) at a separate visit. Total Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy scores <30th percentile were categorized as potentially needing physical literacy support. Receiver operator characteristic curves identified assessment cut points with 80% sensitivity and 40% specificity relative to total physical literacy scores.
    Results: 223 children (97 girls; 10.1 [2.6] y) participated. Physical activity adequacy, predilection, and physical competence achieved ≥80% sensitivity and ≥40% specificity in both data sets. Adequacy ≤ 6.5 had 86% to 100% sensitivity and 48% to 49% specificity. Daily screen time >4.9 hours combined with Adequacy ≤6.15 had 88% to 10% sensitivity and 53% to 56% specificity.
    Conclusions: Activity adequacy, alone or with screen time, most effectively identified children likely to benefit from physical literacy support. Adequacy and screen time questionnaires are suitable for clinical use. Similar results regardless of diagnosis suggest physical competence deficits are not primary determinants of active lifestyles. Research to enhance screening specificity is required.
