Oregon health officials urge vaccination for measles amid high cases The Oregon Health Authority is urging unvaccinated Oregonians to consider getting inoculated against the measles virus, as the nation could see its highest number of cases since the disease was declared eliminated in 2000. State health officials on April 3 said that Oregon has 13 confirmed cases of measles so far this year already, a stark contrast to 2025 when the state didn't see its first case until June. The United States has experienced unusually high measles case counts in recent years, reaching a record high in 2025. Nearly 1,700 measles cases have been reported nationwide so far in 2026, compared to the 2,286 reported in 2025, raising concerns that this year could see another record-breaking number of measles cases. The highest number of measles cases in Oregon in recent memory was in 2024, when 31 cases were reported throughout the state. "When we look at the national trend, and when we look at the trend here in Oregon, with just three months behind us and having 13 cases, then we think 2026 will likely surpass 2024," said state epidemiologist Dr. Dean Sidelinger. Officials said that although some Oregon counties have not reported any confirmed measles cases, the virus has...

Michigan health officials urge measles vaccination as 8th case is reported LANSING, Mich. (WILX) - A new case of measles has been reported in Monroe County, marking the eighth case in Michigan this year. Seven other cases have been identified in Washtenaw County. The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services is urging families to get vaccinated. Health officials recommend an accelerated first dose of the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine for infants ages 6 to 11 months in several counties, including Jackson, Livingston and Lenawee. The early-dose recommendation runs through May 16. Infants who receive the early dose will still need two additional doses after their first birthday to complete the series.

New Zealand government, media discourage vaccination amid COVID wave New Zealand is currently experiencing a spike in COVID-19 cases, with 50 people hospitalised with the coronavirus in the first week of March and 82 in the second week. Test kits are not freely available, so there is no reliable data on the number of people who have the virus. Since July last year the Ministry of Health has not provided updates on the number of people dying each week from COVID. It reports there have been 5,630 COVID-related deaths since the pandemic began, up from around 4,500 in December 2024. In other words, COVID is linked to around 1,000 deaths per year—twice as many as influenza. The vast majority of these deaths occurred after the previous Labour Party-led government, led by Jacinda Ardern, caved in to the demands of big business and abandoned its elimination strategy, which had kept New Zealand almost entirely free from COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021. The virus spread rapidly in 2022, infecting millions of people and overwhelming hospital emergency departments. The media, the National Party-led government and the entire political establishment have almost stopped talking about COVID, leading fewer people to get regular booster vaccines. While they do not stop the spread of COVID,...

Health Beliefs and Perspectives of Parents Regarding Human Papillomavirus Vaccination in Kuwait: Qualitative Study Background: After breast #Cancer, cervical #Cancer (CC) is one of the leading causes of female mortality. CC accounts for more than 7.5% of female #Cancer deaths worldwide. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted disease in women and the leading cause of CC in almost 99% of all CC cases. HPV vaccination could prevent up to 70% of HPV-related CC and 90% of genital warts. HPV vaccination is the bedrock of primary prevention and helps reduce the incidence and death rates of HPV-associated CC. Objective: The study aimed to understand the knowledge, health beliefs, and perspectives of Kuwaiti parents regarding HPV vaccination, with the goal of developing a health promotion policy and introducing a national immunization program in Kuwait. Methods: A total of 37 participants were evaluated using purposive sampling to select 20 (54%) participants for one-on-one semistructured interviews. We wanted to include both participants (male and female parents) with primary education (diploma or below) or secondary and higher education (bachelor’s degree and above). We had four categories (male parents/guardians with a diploma or below, male parents/guardians with a bachelor’s degree or above, female parents/guardians with a diploma or below, and female parents/guardians with a bachelor’s degree or above) with at least 5 participants in each category, which gave us 20 participants. Semistructured interviews were based on the Health Belief Model (HBM). The data were thematically analyzed using an inductive approach, generating themes through the theoretical framework of the HBM, and theme extraction analyses were managed on a semantic level. Results: We identified 7 main themes containing 20 subthemes. The seven themes were (1) knowledge and awareness about HPV infection and vaccination (3 subthemes); (2) perceived susceptibility, which is explained by the HPV infection effect based on sex (2 subthemes); (3) perceived barriers to HPV vaccination (8 subthemes); (4) perceived benefits (1 subtheme); (5) perceived severity (2 subthemes); (6) perceived efficacy (2 subthemes); and (7) cues to action (2 subthemes). Conclusions: The HBM framework is beneficial for Kuwait’s HPV vaccination campaign. The correlation between sexual intercourse and the HPV vaccine frequently adds complexity to the decision-making process about immunization. This study demonstrates that positive cues to action from health care practitioners and educational vaccination benefits can overcome perceived barriers among parents related to stigma and religion. It is essential to conduct more such research to guide the development of interventions aimed at promoting adoption of the HPV vaccine.

PCV schedule shift associated with increased vaccination inequalities in England Vaccine uptake data has been examined to assess the impact of moving from a '2+1' to a '1+1' Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) dose schedule on vaccine coverage and health inequalities among infants in England. Persistent inequalities remain a major barrier to achieving universal protection against life-threatening infections – reflecting findings from the UK Heath Security Agency National Immunisation Programme Health Equity Audit 2025. The findings from an interdisciplinary research team including data scientists, infectious disease epidemiologists and physicians from the University of Liverpool are published today (1 April 2026) in the journal The Lancet Regional Health – Europe. By performing a data analysis, researchers from the Institute of Population Health and the Institute of Infection, Veterinary & Ecological Sciences at the University of Liverpool have examined the trends in timely vaccine uptake before and after England changed its PCV dose schedule in January 2020 – transitioning from a "2+1" PCV schedule (two primary doses at 8 and 16 weeks, with a booster dose at 12 months) to a "1+1" PCV schedule (single primary dose at 12 weeks and a booster dose at 12 months). In a longitudinal study, the researchers analysed Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) uptake data from 2013-2025 for...
