A systematic review of communication interventions for countering vaccine misinformation

Hannah S. Whitehead et al.

Summary: Misinformation and disinformation around vaccines have become more prominent, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. This systematic review examines communication-based strategies to combat vaccine misinformation and assesses their effectiveness. The review identifies nine intervention approaches, focusing on the content and delivery of the intervention or message. Some strategies, such as scare tactics, were found to be ineffective, while others, such as communicating the weight-of-evidence and incorporating warnings, showed promise. Further evaluation is needed to measure the impact on vaccine uptake.

Vaccination for seasonal influenza, pneumococcal infection and SARS-CoV-2 in patients with solid tumors: recommendations of the Associazione Italiana di Oncologia Medica (AIOM)

P. Pedrazzoli et al.

Summary: Cancer patients have a higher risk of vaccine-preventable diseases, but vaccination rates are inadequate. The Italian Association of Medical Oncology has been actively involved in vaccination awareness and has released recommendations for adult patients with solid tumors regarding flu, pneumococcal, and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. Comprehensive education, multidisciplinary care, surveillance, preventive practices, and future immunological studies are crucial for better management of cancer patients.

Development of hepatitis triggered by SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patient with cancer during immunotherapy: a case report

Angioletta Lasagna et al.

Summary: This article reports a case of hepatitis and colitis in a 52-year-old woman who was undergoing immunotherapy and was HBV positive 10 days after receiving the first Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine dose. The authors hypothesize that these vaccines may increase the incidence of immune-related side effects due to the immune response stimulated by both immunotherapy and COVID-19 vaccines.
