Each year will be enhanced and complemented by other components. Scientists are developing a vaccine before the new flu season, taking into account the forecast, which flu strains will be distributed with a greater probability on one or another territory.

What vaccine is designed for season 2019-2020?

In the influenza virus, there are three main subtypes: A, C and B, among which the greatest dangers are the types of in and a, whose genetic material is in constant mutation. This leads to the emergence of all new flu strains, which are dangerous for the population by the fact that people have not yet been developed against them.

Classification There are several options for the classification of recommended and proven drugs. According to the composition:

1. live vaccines;
2. split inactivated;
3. solidian inactivated.

By exposure to strains:

1. trivalent - Protect from three types of virus (two A and one B);
2. pierwalent - respectively protect from two types A and two to ....

In recent years, the subtype of the "Pork" influenza A / H1N1 influenza is considered the most dangerous, which, unlike bird flu, can quickly be transferred from person to a person, thereby contributing to the rapid dissemination of the disease.

Important! The flu virus constantly changes its genetic composition, so flu vaccine must be constantly reformulated. For this reason, the vaccination of influenza should be made annually.

Influenza vaccines are usually protected from 3-4 virus strains at the same time. Trivalent vaccines protect from two strains of type A (H3N2, H1N1) and one strain of V. V. first developed in 2013-2014 Flu vaccines designed to protect against the same strains plus a new additionally developed influenza strain V.

Flu vaccines 2017-2018 differ in the composition of the vaccination of the last season, both in trivalent and in the travelers.

The composition of the trivalent vaccine:

• A / Michigan Virus strain / 45/2015, PDM09 H1N virus is an additional H1N1 component other than last year.
• A / Hong Kong Virus strain / 4801/2017, H3N virus component, which was part of last year's vaccine.
• Virus Strain / Brisbane / 60/2008, Victoria Lineage Vius). The constituent strain of type B, similar to the vaccination of last year.

Pieril vaccine In addition to the above composition, there is a second strain of a Virus type B - strain V / Phuket / 3073/2013.

The composition of the developed flu vaccines in 2020 is aimed at protecting the population from the "seasonal" influenza, as well as to prevent the "swine" infections - A / H1N1.

Types of flu vaccines

Currently, you can choose a flu vaccine in a polyclinic: foreign or domestic, seized or alive. Any of the proposed vaccines forms immune protection against influenza virus.

In addition to the standard flu vaccine, the vaccination of which is done through the needle, vaccination in other forms is available, for example, an option with a high dose for people over 65 years old, an option with a small dose (intradermal vaccination) and a nasal spray. In some clinics, the vaccination can be carried out by a special needle without a syringe (with an inkjet injector), in which the injection is made under the action of high.

Note! Nasal influenza spray is not recommended to be used during flu vaccination 2019-2020, in view of its ineffectiveness, in the prevention of influenza in the period from 2013 to 2016.

What are the types of flu vaccines:

• Flu vaccines are alive. The composition contains weakened viruses that can cause influenza symptoms. After their use, a steady, however, often arise by post-specific complications and reactions. Vaccination is carried out by intranasal method (through nasal passages): children from three to 14 years old twice with a three or four-week intervals, adults (from 14 years old) - once. Example: "Vaccine Grippose Allantomic Live" (producer - Russia), protects simultaneously from three strains of the virus.
• Flu Vaccines inactivated influenza influenza. Made from concentrated and purified influenza viruses made on the basis of chicken embryos by UV irradiation. Such vaccines cannot be prescribed to persons having allergies to chicken protein and children under 7 years. Example: "Influenza" (producer - Russia), adults can be introduced intranasal and subcutaneous way, children - only intranasal way.
• Flu vaccines Splitted (split-vaccines). There are no viruses in the vaccine, it consists of protein structures of viruses. Such vaccines can already be administered from 6 months of life, they do not contain chicken protein, which means they do not cause appropriate allergic reactions. Vaccine is introduced intramuscularly in outdoor surface Shoulder, young children can be introduced into the outdoor side of the thigh. Example: (France), Begdivak (Germany), Fluarix (England).
• Influenza vaccines subunit. Cause the smallest number of post-specific reactions, are most purified. The composition includes only purified surface antigen of viruses. Example: and (Russia), (Golucia).

Pregnant women can use for vaccinating any proposed flu vaccine, with the exception of nasal sprays. That is, pregnant women are recommended to vaccine inactivated ("killed") vaccines or recombinant flu vaccines, which were produced without the use of chicken protein, and, therefore, cannot cause allergic reactions.

What flu vaccine to choose - list and prices

Together with the mutation of influenza vaccine against it, every year is changing. In Russia, the second year in a row is carried out vaccination with the help of the drug "" (producer - Russia), in which this year has been made active substance against the new strain of the Michigan virus.

In addition, other drugs against influenza are available in Russia, which can be used, both to combat the virus and as a preventive measure from the disease.

According to the latest information of the World Health Organization, the 2018 Influenza is three strains to which influenza A (H3N2-Hong Kong) include, influenza in (Brisbane) and H1N1 influenza (Michigan). Natsimbio, an organization that deals with the supply of drugs for vaccination to Russia already conveys virus strains for the development of drugs.

Antigen data of pathogens are already actively used as part of drugs for the vaccination of Russians. Experts are currently conducting vaccination of the population and warn that people with weakened immunity, pregnant women, children, old-age patients and patients with metabolic disorders in the body are falling into risk groups.

Special attention should be paid to the virus A Michigan, as it is considered the most new and active currently. In the territory of Russia and Ukraine, cases of infection have already been fixed.

Doctors promise that the modified composition of the drugs will allow to fight with a new type of influenza and protect most of the population from infection and distribution. It is expected that the virus will be observed during all cold seasons of 2018.

What flu is expected?

As you know, in 2016, more than a hundred patients in Russia died from the influenza virus.Answering the question of which flu will be in 2018, doctors agree that Michigan will become particularly common and dangerous, which is a variation of California strain, also known as "swine flu". The season of large-scale epidemics falls at the end of 2017, a particularly active virus will become in the initial winter months of 2018.

For the first time, this type of virus was discovered at the beginning of 2016, while it is a kind of swine flu 2009, but is distinguished by rapid development with the estimated incubation period 1-3 days. Experts believe that the Michigan virus is associated with overly warm climatic conditions. Experts do not know how this version of the strain will show itself in 2018.

They call on all patients seriously think about vaccination, especially since this type of virus is different high levels contagiousness. According to experts, it is enough to spend in one room with an infected person one hour to get sick with flu too. Already in September 2017, vaccination items were opened.

Estimated features of the manifestation of strain

The Michigan virus still refers to a little studied, nevertheless experts put forward a list of alleged features of manifestations that can be prescribed:

• worsening overall healthaccompanied by weakness, strong fatigue;
• cough, sore throat;
• pain in chest with frequent intense cough;
• a strong feeling of dryness in the mouth;
• strong headache;
• difficulty swallowing;
• temperature increase In a few hours;
• fever, heat, chills;
• transmission of influenza virus by air-droplet.

Experts suggest that since the Michigan virus is a type of swine flu, then, most likely, such a symptom, like a runny nose, is usually not. It is likely to develop some dyspeptic disorders: abdominal pain, nausea, vomit attacks, diarrhea. Among possible complications 2018 influenza highlights high risk of pneumonia and serous meningitis.

The Michigan virus is dangerous in that it can develop much faster than swine flu influenza. To establish a definitive diagnosis in suspecting flu, it is recommended to hand over the sowing of a sowing of sputum and PCR to detect RNA.

The incubation period can be from 1 to 5 days. The virus breeds quickly enough and provokes the death of the epithelium cells. Most dangerous view Complications - fatal outcome. Doctors warn about the need preventive Mer now.

Influenza Prevention Options 2018

Until the exact symptoms of the Michigan virus were established, nevertheless, doctors believe that prevention measures will be unchanged for all types of influenza:

• need to be vaccinated;
• hands should be regularly with antibacterial soap;
• avoid communicating with an infected person (it must be fully isolated);
• avoid supercooling;
• strengthen the immune system with vitamins and special preparations;
• take antiviral drugs.

When and where to take vaccination?

The flu vaccine in 2017-2018 will be held, starting from September in the following institutions:

• polyclinics(after referring to the therapist);
• hospitals;
• schools;
• at metro stations (On weekdays from 8 am to 20:00, on Saturday from 9 am to 18:00 and on Sunday from 9 am to 16:00).

Vaccination of the population is also carried out in the district MFC. According to representatives of the Ministry of Health, vaccination will be mandatory during the epidemics season.

What will be vacuum from influenza in the 2018-19 season

Imported vaccines will not be almost in 2018. The influvak vaccine is not supplied to Russia this year - production in the Netherlands is fully loaded, quickly ensure additional production is already late. Vaxigrip vaccine will go into limited quantities. Therefore, the Russians will be vaccinated with domestic vaccines - this is "Ultriks", "Sovigarip" and "Grippoll Plus".

Warm summer days remained behind, cold is coming. Winter time is associated not only with frost and ice, but also with the flu epidemic. These viruses annually attack people from different parts of our country, sometimes causing serious complications and even leading to death. Many know about the danger of this disease, so thinking about influenza vaccination.

Whether grafting is effective

Many believe that the vaccination does not protect against the disease. Some vaccinated people note that they had to endure the unpleasant SMI symptoms. Let's figure it out will flu vaccinations.

Each year, the epidemic is caused by various strains of influenza virus. Companies producing vaccines take into account forecasts for the future season and orient vaccine precisely on those strains that are expected to attack. If you get hurt last year's vaccine, there will be no effect from this, since the variety of virus changes from year to year.

Flu vaccine does not protect against others viral infections, for example, adenovirus, rhinovirus, etc. If a vaccinated person fell ill, then, most likely, it was not flu, but a different infection that proceeds easier and is not dangerous to the body.

You need to be vaccinated in advance so that the immunity has managed to form. If you make vaccinations a week before the beginning of the epidemic, the effectiveness of this preventive event will be extremely low. Usually, protective immunity develops within 2-3 weeks after vaccination.

Conclusion: Vaccination is effective if it is carried out on time, and the vaccine is chosen correctly.

Who needs to be vaccinated

If you enter the risk group, then you need to vaccinate from influenza.

Medical workers, teachers, public transport drivers, sellers and other categories, in contact with a large number of people, have increased risk of becoming victims of the virus. They need a vaccination first.

Persons with immunodeficiency and heavy somatic diseases, such as:

• chronic diseases respiratory tract;
• cardiovascular diseases;
• kidney disease;
• endocrine disorders (diabetes mellitus).

Children and adolescents (from 6 months to 18 years old), older people over 65 have an increased risk of developing complications of flu infection. They are recommended to be accused of mandatory.

The rest are also not insured from hazardous infectionSo they should think about vaccination.

When brewing

When to put influenza vaccination?

Optimal deadlines - from September to mid-November. If you comply with these recommendations, then before the end of the epidemic, immunity will have time to form and will continue until the end of the season.

Many recall the vaccination only in December, when the flu is already coming. This is not the best time for vaccination, but making vaccinations better late than not to do at all. Moreover, in January-February, the second wave of influenza usually comes. By this time, in December, the immunity will have time to formed in December.

Select vaccine

Immunity formation depends on the selected vaccine. The strains of the influenza virus should be relevant for the upcoming season, in addition, the drug must be registered in the territory of the Russian Federation.

Which flu vaccine is better?

From year to year, efficiency and safety demonstrates the Inflush. Vaxigripp and the domestic drug Grippol is also widely used.

How the vaccine is transferred

Many fear making vaccinations because side Effects. In the case of flu vaccination, the percentage of reactions is minimal.

Some patients at the venue of vaccination formed redness. This phenomenon is not dangerous and passes independently.

Sometimes patients after vaccination feel weakness, lethargy. In isolated cases, a short-term rise temperature can be recorded.

Most people after vaccination do not feel any changes and feel good. The many years of experience in Russian and foreign doctors proves that the influenza vaccination is safe.

Influenza is not a banal cold, but a cunning disease that can cause serious consequences. Do not risk your health, especially if it is possible to defend yourself from this virus - to make vaccine vaccinations in time. It is not worth spending your life to the disease, but money for treatment. Make vaccination and forget about the flu.

Influenza vaccines 2017 - 2018: What to choose - our or foreign? Titles, description, features

Why do the influenza vaccination

The flu is highly contagious (or, simply speaking, a very contagious) disease of viral nature, the main of the symptoms of which is the inxication of the body and the defeat of predominantly the upper respiratory tract. Influenza vaccines - this is the only one effective toolaimed at preventing the incidence of data from the disease, as well as contributing to the easier flow in the case when the infection was still failed.

The only effective influenza protection is timely vaccination

1. The virus enters the body through airways And begins to actively multiply.
2. The acute beginning of the disease is accompanied by almost always a sharp increase in body temperature - it usually fluctuates around 39-40 degrees. The patient is also tormented by a strong headache (mainly in the forehead area), pain in muscles and joints and chills.
3. On the second day, the patient begins to complain about a small runny nose and dry cough.

Important! It is not dangerous so much the flu itself (although the high temperature can carry a threat to life, but, as a rule, it is possible to "knock down"), how much complications - the virus can affect the lungs, kidneys and the central nervous system.

Especially subject to the development of complications Patients children's age, Older people and patients with serious chronic diseases. Children must need to vaccinate flu vaccinations every year, since the immune system The child is not yet fully formed and often can not save the baby even from relatively "simple" forms of the virus.

What are viruses and vaccines

Various strains of influenza virus are very variable. They mutate from year to year in new forms, for this reason the set of flu vaccines in the same way, annually improves - new components are entered into them. Before each new season, the influenza is performed by an improvement in flu vaccines, taking into account the forecast regarding the likelihood of distributing a strain of influenza in various territories. And to confront a cunning virus is not easy.

Note! The most Grozny is considered the subtype of the A / H1N1 influenza (it is also called "pig"). It instantly applies to vast territories, because it is incredibly quickly transmitted from patients and infected people to healthy.

The flu virus is divided into the following subtypes:

• And (the most variable, constantly mutates and becomes more dangerous);
• In (also fast mutating virus);
• C (not so variable).

Mutations lead to the emergence of new strains, to protect against which with the help of their own immunity it is possible, unfortunately, not always.

Flu vaccines 2017-2018, as well as those produced earlier, protect the patient simultaneously from three-four virus strains.

1. Trivalent vaccines will provide protection from 2 strains of the influenza virus a, namely - H3N2 and H1N1, as well as from 1 strain of the influenza virus V.
2. Farmable vaccines in the season of 2013-2014, they will protect us from the same strains, and, in addition, from another strain of flu virus subtype V.

Flu vaccines 2017 and 2018 will also have differences from each other, and not only in the title - influenza vaccination in 2018 (and trivalent, and quadricular types) will have another composition compared with the 2017 vaccine to ensure better protection against "Updated" virus.

Tip! If you want to know what kind of drug doctor enters you during vaccination, you have a complete right to ask the doctor about the name and composition of vaccinesRead the instructions.Also, a specialist is obliged to inform you about possible side effects.

1. The components of the trivalent flu vaccine 2017-2018 are:

Additional type H1N1, namely influenza A, subtype Michigan / 45/2015, H1N PDM09; as well as H3N A / Hong Kong / 4801/2017 strain. Plus in the vaccine there is a flu virus B / Brisbane / 60/2008 - in-Victoria Lineage).

Tip! In this and the coming year, preference should be given to drugs containing in the strain of Hong Kong and Michigan virus strains, as they can give dangerous complications.

1. As for the four-column vaccine, then, in addition to those components, which were listed above, it has a V / Phuket PHUKET strain / 3073/2013.

2017-2018 vaccines will help to prevent not only the incidence of "seasonal" flu, but also will ensure the prevention of infection with the type A / H1N1 virus type ("Pork").

Important! The action of any vaccine for each person may be unpredictable, so the doctor should select the type of vaccination under the clinic conditions, and the drug itself must certainly be certified.
When choosing a drug, a specialist should be taken into account both age and history, and the current state of the patient's health.

What vaccines exist: their names and what to choose

Vaccine varieties today include:

1. Live vaccines whose weakened strains of infection are included. This type of vaccine is capable of provoking the development of a short-term flu-like state - however, when it is applied, a persistent high-quality immunity is formed. Allergoreaactions and other complications using this type of vaccine, alas, are also not uncommon. We are vaccinated intranasally (instilled in nostrils) - twice after 3 weeks for children for 3-14 years and one-time - adult patients. An example of such a type of drugs is the Russian trailer "flu vaccine allantomic live".

It is interesting! In addition to ordinary vaccination, there are innovative techniques that allow the dose of the drug using:

• Nasal spray (the most simple and already familiar method - has established itself in 2015 as ineffective);
• Intradermal injection with a reduced dose;
• And the most interesting thing is inkjet injection under high pressure Without a syringe.

1. All-Russian inactivated vaccines. They are created from purified viruses in high concentrationprepared from the material of chicken embryos irradiated with ultraviolet. The specified type of vaccine is contraindicated to persons, a history of which is allergic to chicken protein, as well as young patients before the age of age. As examples, a domestic "influenza" can be given for subcutaneous and intranasal types of administration (intranasally introduced to children, but it is not recommended to babies up to 7 years, because it can cause allergies) and inflexion (Switzerland).

Note! You should not be afraid of domestic drugs, because their production and development are under constant control of not only the Ministry of Health, but also Rospotrebnadzor, moreover, the composition of vaccines is constantly being improved.

1. Split vaccines (or splitted), which have no particular protein structures in viruses and containing only their separate protein structures. Showing small patients from 6 months and almost do not cause allergic reactions. Introduction is carried out intramuscular way to the upper appropriate surface of the shoulder, and the smallest patient has such a vaccine can be administered in the thigh over the outside. Examples: German "Begdivak", "Vaxigrip" of French production and "Fluarix" (Production of England).

Note! Each variety of vaccines has its own features of application and a number of contraindications!

1. And the most secure is the split varieties of subunit vaccines. They least give complications and allergic reactions, are considered to be rightfully cleaned of existing ones. In their composition - pure surface virus antigens. Examples: Dutch influvak and domestic "influenza" or "Grippol Plus", as well as Agrippal (Italy) and French "Vaxigripp". In 60-70% of patients, with their use, persistent antiviral immunity to influenza remains.

Nowadays, you can choose the most suitable vaccine for yourself in almost any polyclinic: imported or domestic production, among which you can prefer a split or alive.

Tip! Pregnant women are not recommended to make vaccination by applying nasal sprays. You should be taken using inactivated drugs, or, as an option - recombinant vaccines produced without using an animal protein (chicken protein), that is, the least allergic.

Flu vaccination 2020-2021 Which vaccine is better - rating and overview of the best vaccines, as well as reviews of doctors and patients on effectiveness and contraindications of drugs. Hong Kong, Japanese, California, Spanish and other types of influenza annually excite the minds and the imagination of citizens. But the saddest thing is that there are really very many cases of death and complications.

With regard to influenza vaccinations, physicians have a variety of opinions, for example, some believe that the best vaccine can only be alive, after which truly impenetrable immunity is formed. Simple citizens are judged differently, mainly taking into account the number of side effects. After all, it is no secret that after living vaccines, many people are very ill. There may also be a reverse effect when the vaccination kills the remnants of immunity, and the person simply does not get out of hospital.

In this regard, make a rating best vaccinations From flu 2020-2021 it is very difficult, especially considering potential accusations of commercial interest. I immediately want to warn that the author is generally against flu vaccination, especially for young and healthy people. Most good toolwhich have no side effects - is the use of garlic in combination with sports, vitamins, good nutrition and healthy way Life. By the way, the use of garlic persons who work with customers, increases time for recreation, and speeds up empty conversations.

But since it is impossible to dissuade the influenza vaccination with a simultaneous transition to garlic with a huge number of people, and the opinion of the Ministry of Health must be taken into account, then the list of the most popular drugs should be drawn up.

Influenza vaccination rating

The rating of the best influenza vaccinations 2020-2021 is quite approximately taking into account several criteria. This rating is not based on clinical trials, it is based on opinions and reviews of patient doctors. Again, these reviews are different everywhere, therefore it is not necessary to hope for complete objectivity, but in general terms this information can be obtained more or less accurate representation.

On side effects and contraindications:

In all-cell living and inactivated vaccines where a slightly purified or killed influenza virus is the largest percentage of side effects. Even the area of \u200b\u200bthe injection often blues and hurts, and the patient can be tightly sick after vaccination. It is thanks to these drugs in the influenza vaccination so many opponents.

Split vaccines have proteins, but the virus itself is destroyed. This is the most popular type of vaccine today. But by the number of side effects, subunit vaccines, where everything is most purified, the safest.

By efficiency:

People who believe that Zhiguli is better than Mercedes, and the US and the EU are reinforced, can safely put the Russian influenza vaccination. It can even.

Everything else is recommended to put import influvak. Why exactly her? Because there are many positive feedback on her forums, at least more than others. You can also google and find the recommendations of immunologists and pediatricians, parents of children, and so on.

Given the development of technology, in a few years a new influenza vaccine may appear. Which vaccine will be better discussing a little from another perspective, for example, some doctors talk about the prospects for all-cell drugs, they say, will make them safe.
