THE USE OF EVIDENCES IN PUBLIC HEALTH DECISION MAKING PROCESS - HYPOTESIS
1. Public health decisions are taken with communities or entire country rather than individuals as the unit of intervention. (1)
2. The different parts of the population respond differently to identical intervention. (2,3)
3. “Good intention and plausible theories alone are insufficient basis for decision about public programmes that affect the lives of others”. (4)

THE USE OF EVIDENCE IN PUBLIC HEALTH DECISION MAKING PROCESS –WHAT COUNTS?
Cohort Studies
Case Control Studies
Case Series
Case Reports
Ideas, Editorials, Opinions
Animal research
In vitro research
OTHER FACTORS:
• Financial sustainability
• Pressure from stakeholders
• Public opinion /Degree of community support
• Social value (5)
Sistematic Reviews,
Meta-analyses
RCT Studies

VACCINATION – WHAT KIND OF EVIDENCES?
• CLINICIANS- used their ‘networks’ from sources that they trusted, internalized tacit guidelines. (7)
• PUBLIC HEALTH - need aggregate ‘proof’ that a practice is safe, effective and cost-effective.(7)

EVIDENCES – WHAT IS NEEDED?
• Vaccines – tested for safety, immunogenicity and efficacity before to be licensed .
• European Medicines Agency – guidance on the clinical evaluation of vaccines.
• Immunogenicity studies: dose, determination of the primary vaccine schedule, persistence of protection, need for doses, other interactions, general safety of products.

VACCINE EFFICACY
• Does the vaccine work? (8)
• % reduction in disease incidence in a vaccinated group compared to an unvaccinated group under optimal conditions (eg RCT) (9)
• Ex: Hepatitis B, adults=50-70% infectious asymptomatic/mild, 10% become chronicly infected carriers; children =90% initially asymptomatic, 90% infant and 25-50% of 1-5 years become lifelong carriers. Estimates: 1/3 of the world’s population infected
• After three intramuscular doses of hepatitis B vaccine, more than 90% of healthy adults and more than 95% of infants, children, and adolescents (from birth to 19 years of age) develop adequate antibody responses. (12)

VACCINE EFFECTIVENESS
• Does the vaccination help people? (10)
• The ability of vaccine to prevent outcomes of interest in the “real world” (9)
• Ex:
• “Since 1982, over 1 billion doses of hepatitis B vaccine have been used worldwide. In many countries where between 8–15% of children used to become chronically infected with the hepatitis B virus, vaccination has reduced the rate of chronic infection to less than 1% among immunized children.”(13)

WHY AREN’T VACCINES PERFECT? (11)
• Individual variations
• Rare events – serious side effects (1 in 1000- 1 in million
• Some people should not be vaccinated
– previous allergic reaction
– compromised immune system

SUMMARY
• Vaccination – a primary prevention measure focused on decreasing the incidence of infectious diseases.
• Public health decision on vaccination take into consideration evidences:
– A vaccine need to be safe, to have efficacy and efficiency (enough evidence) to be licensed
• Immunization coverage – correlated with decreasing of disease incidence.
