Hong Kong: Expert group concludes on four reported cases of serious adverse events following HSI vaccination (2/25/10, edited))

Hong Kong: Expert group concludes on four reported cases of serious adverse events following HSI vaccination (2/25/10, edited))

Hong Kong: Expert group concludes on four reported cases of serious adverse events following HSI vaccination (2/25/10, edited))

The Expert Group on Serious Adverse Events With History of Human Swine Influenza (HSI) Vaccination today (February 25) discussed four cases reported to the Centre for Health Protection recently.

• The first case was one of intrauterine death (IUD) affecting a 28-year-old pregnant woman at 39 weeks of gestation.
  • The expert group noted that the patient received HSI vaccine on December 21, 2009, more than seven weeks before the diagnosis of IUD, at a Maternal and Child Health Centre. Pathological examinations on the placenta and fetus have been done, pending final results.
  • The expert group noted that about 150 to 220 cases of IUD occur in Hong Kong every year.
  • A significant proportion (15 to 70 per cent) of them does not have identifiable causes.
  • As of February 22, 2010, a total of 1,423 pregnant women have received HSI vaccine.
  • So far, the proportion of IUD among vaccinated women has not exceeded the local baseline incidence of IUD which is about 0.2 to 0.4 per cent of total deliveries (including live births and stillbirths).
  • Monitoring of hospital records of IUD from the Hospital Authority (HA) showed that incidence of IUD is within the background level in Hong Kong.
  • "Extensive overseas experience and the World Health Organization (WHO) have confirmed the lack of any demonstrable association of HSI vaccination with IUD. There is currently no evidence that HSI vaccines increase the chance of IUD based on both local data and international experience," a spokesman for the expert group said. "It is unlikely that this IUD case was caused by HSI vaccination."
• In the second case, the patient was a 75-year-old woman who presented with bilateral lower limb weakness on February 8, 2010 and was admitted to Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
  • The clinical picture and laboratory investigations of this patient are compatible with Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS). Tracheal aspirate taken on February 17, 2010 grew Haemophilus Influenzae. The patient received HSI vaccine on December 31, 2009 at a public outpatient clinic, more than five weeks before the onset of symptoms.
  • "Literature review revealed that the majority of GBS cases that were temporally associated with seasonal influenza vaccination occur between the second and the third week, with a median latency of 13 days," the spokesman said.
  • "To date, the WHO has found no evidence suggesting a causal relationship between GBS and HSI vaccination and the reported number of GBS cases worldwide has been in line with usual background rates prior to the introduction of such vaccines."
  • In Hong Kong, about 40 to 60 GBS cases are seen in public hospitals each year as a matter of baseline incidence. The expert group noted that the incidence of GBS is higher among elderly persons and during the winter season.
  • A statistical analysis was performed using local GBS data to ascertain if there is higher than expected incidence of GBS among vaccinated persons in Hong Kong.
  • "The observed number of two GBS cases among vaccinated persons so far lies within normal expectation of baseline incidence that would occur in a population of 170,000 (regardless of vaccination history), adjusted for age and seasonal effects," the spokesman said.
  • "In other words, HSI vaccination is not associated with increased incidence of GBS."
• The third case involved a 34-year-old man with unremarkable past health who developed headache on February 20, 2010, followed by diplopia on February 21, 2010.
  • He received HSI vaccine on December 21, 2009, more than eight weeks before the onset of symptoms.
  • His condition improved after treatment in hospital and he was discharged on February 24, 2010. He is now being investigated and followed up to ascertain the final diagnosis.
  • The expert group noted that according to medical literature, the majority of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) cases that were temporally associated (not necessarily causally related) with vaccination occur between five days and six weeks. The group considered that his illness was unlikely to be caused by HSI vaccination.
• The fourth case was an 80-year-old male patient with history of hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, renal impairment and asthma.
  • He presented with sudden onset of limb paralysis and loss of voice on February 5, 2010 and was admitted to hospital on the same day.
  • He received HSI vaccination on December 29, 2009, about six weeks before the onset of symptoms.
  • He is now in critical condition.
  • The expert group considered that the patient's current clinical features are compatible with ADEM.
  • "Based on discharge records of HA, preliminary data shows that between some 40 and 70 cases of ADEM, transverse myelitis and encephalomyelitis are recorded every year in Hong Kong.
  • "To date, the WHO has found no evidence suggesting a causal relationship between these neurological conditions and HSI vaccination," the spokesman said.

Hong Kong: SFH on healthcare expenses and human swine influenza (3/1/10)

Reporter:
(budget plan to spend on dental healthcare for the elderly)

Secretary for Food and Health:
There are many items in the budget regarding improvement of primary care. The Government has put aside $600 million for this particular aspect and that includes the setting up of a centre to co-ordinate primary care, and also setting up of a pilot community health centre. We will also be introducing some public and private partnership in managing chronically ill patients like diabetic and hyper-tension. We have also put aside $21 million as a pilot for improvement of dental care for the elderly. The details will be discussed together with the dental association and also the local dentists. So, the details will not be revealed until later on.

Reporter:
(on human swine flu)

Secretary for Food and Health:
According to the World Health Organisation, the world is going through the so-called post-peak period and so it does not mean that the pandemic is over yet. But I think the peak in general in the Northern Hemisphere has come down. We are seeing increasing cases only in the Middle-East, North Africa and South Asia. For Hong Kong, we are not seeing any sign of winter peak so far and the number of H1N1 has not increased. We saw some of the increases in Influenza B cases in the last two weeks. So we do not know whether that is the sign of our winter peak being dominated by Influenza B or not. According to the expert analysis, because of the long summer peak we had in 2009 lasted for four and a half months, it may be the reason why we do not have a big winter peak as predicted for previous year. As far as the vaccine goes, we are still keeping the vaccine because we do not know whether we will need it in the coming months. We will be purchasing the seasonal flu vaccine for the coming winter at the end of 2010. By the time that the new vaccine comes in October or November, of course we do not require the current vaccine to protect us then.

Hong Kong: SFH on medical insurance and human swine flu (3/4/10)

Following is the transcript of remarks (English portion) by the Secretary for Food and Health, Dr York Chow, at a media session after attending a radio programme today (March 4):

Reporter:
How to ensure insurance company's profits would not be too great? Is there a possibility that the Government will sign an agreement with these insurance companies?

Secretary for Food and Health:
We have not decided how to implement this limitation on profit. For the standard insurance that we are proposing, we hope that it will not incur too high administrative fee or profit for the insurance company. But it does not mean they cannot make profit out of other products. In fact, a lot of experiences in overseas countries also allow insurance companies to sell other products to their clients, and this is one of the big reasons why the insurance companies are surviving and also they can actually have a bigger market. As you know the insurance companies do not just make money out of the premium alone, because they collect the premium and a lot of their profits come from investment of that premium money.

Reporter:
For the swine flu situation in Hong Kong, it is already March and we still have not seen another peak. Does that mean we are safe now?

Secretary for Food and Health:
It is quite true that we do not see a peak this winter so far and the winter is going to be gone very soon. Whether there will be a peak in later months is difficult to predict. But it is the opinion of our experts that the summer peak would still be something we need to be concerned about. Usually the summer peak will arrive about June and July and that is the usual pattern in Hong Kong.

Reporter:
Why did not we see winter peak this season?

Secretary for Food and Health:
We do not have a very solid reason that we can explain why the winter peak did not come about. But perhaps one of the more reasonable causes is the long summer peak we have in 2009. Remember that we had the first case in the middle of June and the peak actually started to rise very quickly in July and August. And it did not really come down until early October. According to some of our studies, quite a number of young people already had anti-bodies in their bodies. Perhaps this is the reason why they do not have a wide outspread in our schools in recent months.
