World Patient Safety Day took place earlier this year on the 17th September. In this blog we set out the need for a transformation in our approach to patient safety and consider the event's theme, “Safe care for every newborn and every child”. www.pslhub.org/learn/patien...

Staying healthy helps us enjoy the weekend — and it also means fewer antibiotics are needed.
Vaccines are part of prevention: they reduce infections and complications before treatment is needed.
Good for people. Good for communities.

A simple illustration showing a pink lollipop next to a pink-and-yellow capsule pill. Below them, the text reads: “Antibiotics are not candies.” A small EU flag icon appears in the bottom right corner.
Antibiotic resistance is a serious and growing public health challenge in Europe.
Misuse and overuse make bacteria resistant, making infections harder to treat.
DON'T MISS IT!
From Resistance to Resilience: healthcare workers leading the change.
Join public health professionals, academia, patients' and NGO's representatives and let's talk about the ways to #KeepAntibioticsWorking!

„Neue STIKO-Empfehlung zur Meningokokken-Impfung. Epidemiologisches Bulletin. Robert Koch-Institut.“ Beschreibung: Vier Kinder circa 12 Jahre stehen lächelnd nebeneinander und schauen in die Kamera. Im oberen Bereich steht der Titel der Grafik auf blauem Hintergrund.
„Die neue Standardimpfempfehlung im Überblick. Die STIKO empfiehlt jetzt die Impfung mit einem quadrivalenten Konjugatimpfstoff gegen Meningokokken der Serogruppen A, C, W und Y (MenACWY) für alle Kinder und Jugendlichen im Alter von 12 bis 14 Jahren. Zur Impfung wird eine Impfstoffdosis benötigt. Nachholimpfungen sollen bis zum 25. Geburtstag erfolgen. Die Jugendgesundheitsuntersuchung (J1) im Alter von 12 bis 14 Jahren ist eine gute Gelegenheit, die Impfung durchzuführen. Die Impfung kann zeitgleich mit anderen von der STIKO empfohlenen Impfungen für diese Altersgruppe erfolgen – insbesondere der Tdap-IPV-Auffrischimpfung und der HPV-Impfung." Beschreibung: Texttafel mit blauer Schrift auf hellblauem Hintergrund, ergänzt durch Pfeil- und Glühbirnensymbole.
„Anpassung der Impfempfehlung gegen Meningokokken C für Kleinkinder. Die bisherige Standardimpfempfehlung gegen Meningokokken C für Kleinkinder im zweiten Lebensjahr wird nicht mehr empfohlen. Auch die Nachholimpfungen bis 18 Jahre entfallen." Beschreibung: Ein Kleinkind sitzt lachend auf dem Boden in einem hellen Raum und spielt mit einem bunten Holzspielzeug.
Die #STIKO hat ihre Standard-Impfempfehlungen zur Prävention invasiver Meningokokken-Erkrankungen aktualisiert.
Ziel ist es, den individuellen Schutz zu verbessern und die Verbreitung der Meningokokken-Erreger nachhaltig zu verringern.

Brilliant presentation by Nathalie Verzele, University of Melbourne, at #ESWI2025 on neuronal infection with influenza A H1N1 pdm 2009.
In animal studies she could show that infection of nerve cells may influence host response and symptomatology.
Immunization against respiratory syncytial virus delivered to infants following birth is safe and provides high antibody levels, regardless of the mother’s RSV vaccination status, according to new research presented at #IDWeek2025. bit.ly/3J9fIbS

Scientists are designing mRNA vaccines to produce virus-like nanoparticles, which should lead to a more robust immune response with even fewer side effects than either of these immunisation approaches on their own
