Scientific and methodical approaches to organizing and conducting immunization in patients with health disorders

Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to control the epidemic process in a number of infectious diseases. Many years of experience in the use of vaccines proved the undeniable importance of preventive vaccination in the fight against serious diseases such as smallpox, polio, diphtheria, tetanus, measles, pertussis, rubella, mumps and others. The incidence of these infections is dependent on vaccination coverage, which should not be lower than 95%. This rate is hard to be achieved and it is a serious public health problem, since every year we notice a growing number of medical exemption to the immunization in children with various health disorders. Immunization in children of the mentioned group is a significant reserve for increasing the rate of vaccinated population. The article outlines basic scientific and methodological approaches to immunization in patients with health disorders. The authors summarized the experience of domestic researchers and suggested the common tactical methods to engage the mentioned cohort of children for immunization, based on modern scientific and practical achievements in child immunization of high-risk groups. These scientific and methodical approaches can improve the rate of the vaccinated population and therefore protect against infectious diseases, managed by specific prophylaxis.
