“…However, health care staff responsible for immunization delivery may miss opportunities for immunizing HIV-infected children because they are unaware of those recommendations, they are concerned about greater risk with use of vaccines in this population, or other reasons. African [4, 5] and European studies [6,7, 8] found lower immunization coverage of HIV-infected children compared to uninfected peers, while a North American study found equally low vaccine coverage, for both HIV-infected and the HIV-exposed uninfected populations for some vaccines [9]. In a rural South African population, maternal HIV-positive status was independently associated with lower vaccination rates for four vaccines in children 12–23 month of age (BCG, DTP3, poliomyelitis, and hepatitis B) [10].…”

“…I dati raccolti in Francia, su una coorte di 331 pazienti, hanno rilevato coperture inferiori rispetto a quelle della popolazione generale; le più frequenti motivazioni riportate sono state la mancata sensibilizzazione da parte del medico curante, la convinzione di non ottenere risultati in termini di efficacia ed il timore di reazioni avverse di tipo immuno-virologico (6). Anche da uno studio condotto a Londra su 75 bambini con infezione da HIV è emerso che questi sono a maggior rischio di incompleta immunizzazione rispetto ai coetanei sani (7). Analoghe valutazioni sono state fatte anche in Italia: un'indagine svolta in tre regioni (Lazio, Campania e Liguria), che aveva l'obiettivo di valutare i tassi di copertura vaccinale (CV) ed il ritardo nel completamento delle vaccinazioni obbligatorie e raccomandate in bambini portatori di alcune patologie croniche (diabete mellito di tipo 1, fibrosi cistica, disturbi neurologici, sindrome di Down ed infezione da HIV), ha rivelato che, su 275 pazienti, la CV a 24 mesi di vita era solo dell'85% per Difterite-Tetano-Pertosse, Poliomielite ed Epatite B e del 62% per Morbillo-Parotite e Rosolia (8).…”

“…5 World Health Organization (WHO) dan The Children's HIV Association (CHIVA) menyatakan, pada anak dengan infeksi HIV, imunisasi tetap aman dan bermanfaat meskipun penekanan sistem imun oleh HIV mengurangi manfaat imunisasi bila dibandingkan dengan anak sehat. 5,6,7 Dengan bertambahnya usia anak dengan infeksi HIV, maka respon imun terhadap vaksin akan semakin menurun. Oleh karena itu, imunisasi I sebaiknya dilaksanakan sedini mungkin pada anak-anak yang lahir dari ibu terinfeksi HIV.…”
