Influenza in Japan

Mass influenza vaccination programs for school aged children had been started in 1960, and about 3 million children were vaccinated. In 1976,repparttar 114461 compulsory vaccination system had been introduced and 17 million children from primary to high school had to be vaccinated twice annually. This was a unique vaccination program inrepparttar 114462 world, whichrepparttar 114463 government believed would avoidrepparttar 114464 social influenza epidemics. This was a wrong hypothesis which was not verified for a long time.

Sincerepparttar 114465 80srepparttar 114466 vaccination uptake was constant at about 60% every year butrepparttar 114467 incidence rate per 100,000 changed from 5 to 60 without concern torepparttar 114468 vaccination rate. Since 1989repparttar 114469 vaccination uptake decreased rapidly to 20%, butrepparttar 114470 incidence rate did not increase.

Influenza incidence rate between non-vaccinated city and neighboring vaccinated cities

City A had 25,000 school children, City B had 21,000 school children. Statistically, they wererepparttar 114471 same.

The results in 1984:

City A ceased compulsory Influenza vaccination in 1980 and less than 1% ofrepparttar 114472 city tookrepparttar 114473 Influenza vaccine. The Influenza incidence was 43%. Cities B,C and D continued compulsory vaccinations. -City B- 90% ofrepparttar 114474 city tookrepparttar 114475 Influenza vaccine. The Influenza incidence was 40%. -City C- 77% ofrepparttar 114476 city tookrepparttar 114477 Influenza vaccine. The Influenza incidence was 43%. -City D - 76% ofrepparttar 114478 city tookrepparttar 114479 Influenza Vaccine. The Influenza incidence was 52%. A similar study was documented in 1985 with similar results. It was an important epidemiologic study that led torepparttar 114480 end ofrepparttar 114481 compulsory influenza vaccination program.

Dr. Christine Wood, M.D, a practicing pediatrician in Encinitas, California, isrepparttar 114457 author of How to Get Kids to Eat Great & Love It!, offers some sound advice about developing healthy eating lifestyles for your family.

Here’s what Dr. Wood has to say. Today almost one out of three children inrepparttar 114458 United States is either overweight or borderline overweight and is likely to develop type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, Dr. Wood warns that these obese children may not live longer than their parents – a depressing thought!

What’s causing this trend? Simply stated, Dr. Wood suggested too many calories and too little activity, although it is more complex than that. The mainstream media is marketing fast food and sedentary activities to our children. Consequently, here are some of their unhealthy options:

* Easy access to fast food for stressed out parents.

* Schools offer sodas and candies in their vending machines.

* Children are increasingly exposed to inexpensive, processed food choices.

* Sincerepparttar 114459 introduction of cable TV and remote controls, Game Boy, home personal computers, among other things, more sedentary options are available than ever before.

* Food companies are taking advantage ofrepparttar 114460 time children spend in front by marketing directly to them.
