Efficacy and good tolerance of the vaccine
This vaccination had already been recommended in the early 2010s but the measure was suspended in 2015 following the occurrence of serious adverse effects. However, following reassessing the latest data, the HAS concluded that the vaccine was effective and well tolerated, stressing that no safety “signal” had been observed for years.
Another novelty, the health authorities recommend “that vaccination once morest seasonal influenza be integrated into the vaccination schedule to be offered each year to children without comorbidities aged 2 to 17 years old, without making it compulsory”. The ministry also recommends that young girls and boys aged 11 to 14 get vaccinated once morest papillomaviruses. These infections are responsible each year for more than 6,000 cancers, particularly of the uterus. The state announced in February a widespread vaccination campaign in colleges.
Eleven compulsory vaccines
Eleven vaccines are still mandatory in the first 18 months of the child. A single product immunizes children once morest diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, poliomyelitis, Haemophilus influenzae type b infections and hepatitis B. Vaccination is done in two injections in infants, at two months and four months , followed by a booster at 11 months of age. The vaccination schedule is the same for pneumococcal infections.
Vaccination once morest measles, mumps and rubella is done at 12 months with a first injection, followed by a second between 16 and 18 months. Finally, to fight once morest invasive meningococcal infections (mainly meningitis), a dose of vaccine is recommended for infants aged five months and then 12 months. A twelfth compulsory vaccine is added to this list, only for residents of Guyana, with an injection once morest yellow fever, to be done from 12 months.
Euro exchange rate rises above USD 1.10 for the first time in a year | Economy
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
The euro is worth more than $ 1.10 on Thursday morning for the first time since April last year. The exchange rate of the US currency fell due to relatively favorable inflation figures in the US.
US inflation was 5 percent in March, which was a windfall. Because the monetary depreciation is less than expected, investors expect fewer rate hikes in the US in the near future. That makes the dollar less attractive.
Last fall, the dollar and the euro were worth roughly the same for a short time. That was the first time in twenty years. This was because the US central bank, the Federal Reserve, started rate hikes earlier than the European Central Bank (ECB). In the meantime, the ECB has also raised interest rates a few times, causing the euro exchange rate to rise once more.
A lower dollar exchange rate might be beneficial for us. US goods are becoming less expensive, which also applies to holidays to the US. It can also have a positive effect on prices at the pump. Oil is often paid for in dollars and is therefore slightly less expensive for Europe due to the low dollar exchange rate.
On the other hand, it is less favorable for exports. It will be more expensive for Americans to buy European goods and to vacation here.
