Problematic Aspects of the Evaluation of the Epidemiological Effectiveness of Vaccination against Tick-BORNE Encephalitis by N. A. Penyevskaya, N. V. Rudakov, S. A. Rudakova

“…In addition, COEF and IEF do not allow to compare the efficiency of vaccination in different areas in physical and monetary units.Based on the analysis of the literature data on immunogenicity of modern vaccines against TBE, protective titer of antibodies and results of field tests of vaccine efficacy in the conditions of total coverage of the population with vaccinations, the authors conclude that the third generation vaccines against TBE protect against disease 95–98% of persons attacked by ticks. …”
