Varicella vaccination programs do not seem to shift the age of disease to older age groups.

Manuel García Cenoz1.   

Abstract

The paper of Baxter et al., recently published in Pediatrics show through five cross-sectional studies, a high impact of vaccination in the decline of varicella incidence and hospitalizations in all age groups in the United States between 1995 and 2009. As a consequence of herd immunity, varicella incidence has also diminished in those non vaccinated, which indicates no shift in the burden of varicella to older age groups.
