Learning about long-term vaccination effects from outbreak data

Background
CDSR, WHO. WHO Fact Sheet on Smallpox. 2001CDC. Smallpox Response Program & Guidelines. 2003
Since World Health Organization announced the total eradication of smallpox in 1979, routine vaccination was ceased worldwide
The potential for bioterrorism has led to intensive discussions on the durability of vaccine-induced immunity
Mass vaccination prior to an attack is currently not recommended
CDC suggests vaccine-induced immunity lasts more or less for 3-5 years
13
Epidemiologic evidence: vaccinated cases tended to be much older than unvaccinated ones.
Text book statements: protection lasts 20 years
Experimental evidence: more than 90% of previously vaccinated individuals hold either cellular or humoral immunity
Are we still protected against smallpox?

Statistical analysis
Historical records on epidemic of smallpox
Criteria for inclusion:(1) Epidemic caused by variola major (not variola minor)(2) Age-specific incidence with vaccination history(3) No revaccination. No post-exposure vaccination (-> UK during the late 19th century)
Key assumptions for a statistical model:(1) Vaccination took place shortly after birth (within 3 months)(2) Primary vaccination failure neglected(3) Booster effects can be adjusted by using age-specific force of infection among unvaccinated(4) Force of infection, probability of case detection, and natural mortality are identical for vaccinated and unvaccinated people

Variola majorA. London 1870s n = 9 761B. Sheffield 1887-8 n = 6 088C. London 1893 n = 2 101D. Liverpool 1902-3 n = 1 163E. Dewsbury 1904 n = 625
Variola minorF. London 1929-30 n = 3 023

against smallpox infection

Heterogeneous populations
Vaccination coverage 80%
Heterogeneity parameter q =0.3
Forces of infection1=0.02/year, 2=0.08/year (R01=1.4; R02=5.6 for L=70 years)

For small q, our estimates appropriately reflect the true duration of immunity and the true vaccination coverage. For larger values of q, we slightly overestimate tm and p.

Final conclusionsAre we still protected against smallpox?
Bad news: protection against infection and disease should mostly be lost by now
Good news: infected individuals may still be protected against life-threatening disease
Bad news: mild disease may allow higher mobility, may not be easily recognized and, therefore, may increase spread

Outlook: simulation studies
