In summary – Key messages
 There is a strong evidence base to support a focus on
immunisation as a lifecourse issue
 But vaccination across the lifecourse does not get the attention
it should
 Policies can be patchy and inconsistent at a European level
(and even within countries)
 Policy makers should focus on breaking down the barriers to
adult immunisation.

A focus on adults: Taking a life-course approach
With the exception of the seasonal
influenza vaccine, many adults believe
that vaccination is relevant only for
children, and awareness of adult
vaccines is low.

Vaccine preventable disease has a big impact
Seasonal influenza: The UK reported a 2010-11 winter
period more severe in terms of pressure on hospitals
than during the 2009-10 pandemic winter. In 2012- 13,
excess death rates were the highest since 2008-09,
with peaks coinciding with influenza circulation [Public
Health England. See Adult Vaccination: A Key
Component of Healthy Ageing]
Pneumonia: UK and Slovakia have the highest reported
mortality rates in Europe (25 per 100 000 population
cases in 2005 and 2009). [See Adult Vaccination: A Key

Impact of vaccine preventable disease
Invasive pneumococcal disease: In 2005, the UK, as well as Belgium, Ireland
and Sweden, reported rates of confirmed cases which approach or are
greater than 10 per 100 000. There was a similar picture in 2009 with
relatively high rates in the UK and in Belgium, Finland, Ireland, Sweden and
Slovenia compared to the other countries reporting. Among the countries
reporting high rates, the trend is relatively static in the UK. [See Adult
Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing]
Pertussis: the recent increase in pertussis notifications corresponds with
the availability of enhanced diagnostic methods. Since 2006, there has been
greater awareness and use of these testing methods, compared to previous
years. [See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing]

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
And there is evidence for vaccination of older adults
Cohort studies show that influenza vaccination provides
substantial health benefits, including reduced hospitalisations,
outpatient visits, mortality and antibiotics prescription among
older people. [Nichol, as cited in Chlibek 2012. See Adult
Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing].
A vaccination programme for older people was shown to be
effective on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in the UK.
Recent clinical studies also suggest vaccination with pneumococcal
conjugate vaccines may provide a benefit in adults. [Jackson, as
cited in Chlibek 2012. See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of
Healthy Ageing ].

Evidence for vaccination of older adults
The implementation of a herpes zoster
vaccination programme for older people has
the potential to improve their quality of life
markedly by reducing the incidence and
severity of the disease. One study, based on
a randomised control trial, found a
reduction in disease burden in older adults
of 61% and a reduction of postherpetic
neuralgia by 67%. [Oxman 2005, as cited in
Chlibek 2012. See Adult Vaccination: A Key
Component of Healthy Ageing]

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
We also know vaccination is cost effective
 A systematic review of the relevant
literature in English language on the cost-
effectiveness evidence of immunisation for
adults aged 50 years or over in all EU
Member States was performed for the SAATI
report published in November 2013.
 Cost-effectiveness studies were found for 4
of the 7 key vaccine-preventable diseases in
the report: herpes zoster, influenza, IPD and
pneumonia. [See Adult Vaccination: A Key
Component of Healthy Ageing]
For these 4 diseases,
studies were found for 13
EU nations that show
immunisation is likely to
provide a cost-effective
strategy for those aged
50 years or over. [See

Component of Healthy
Ageing]

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
And there could be significant “invest to save” return for
policymakers: The SAATI/Dutch study
For the 7 vaccine preventable conditions, an estimated
34,528 infectious disease cases would be avoided over a 50
year period. Approximately 5,782 premature deaths
avoided over the same period.
The amount of lost working days prevented over the same
period was put at 127,480. Health cost savings projected to
reach 6.6 million euros
Lifetime tax contributions from implementing adult
vaccination amounted to 537 million over the remaining life
years of the cohort. [See Adult Vaccination: A Key
Component of Healthy Ageing]

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
The SAATI/Dutch study
Based on the investment costs of vaccinating those aged 50 in the year
2012, the benefit-cost ratio suggests that every 1 euro invested would
result in 4.02 euros over the lifetime of the cohort.

The challenges: Why are we worried?
 There seems a reluctance to take firmer action to improve standards
of adult immunisation in Europe.
 Adult vaccination remains an underused public health strategy to
promote healthy ageing.
 Few EU countries operate a comprehensive adult immunisation
schedule. Countries often recommend vaccination to at-risk groups,
whilst age-based recommendations – which allow individuals to self-
assess their status – are not applied for all vaccine preventable
diseases.
 Adult vaccination coverage rates are often low and vary across
European countries. They are also significantly lower than early
childhood vaccination rates. In addition, Central and Eastern
European countries often perform less well than Western Europe in
terms of uptake results.

dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change.
#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
Why doesn’t adult immunisation get the attention it
should?
 Gaps in access to the vaccines and reimbursement;
 Limited awareness of infectious diseases and vaccines in the
population of all age groups;
 Gaps in the promotion of adult vaccination schedules by public
health authorities;
 Limited leadership from healthcare professionals in recommending
vaccination;
 Inconsistent monitoring and surveillance systems.

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
Prevention is better than cure
“Vaccination can provide cost-effective protection against a host of
diseases throughout life, but remains an underused public-health strategy
in adults for the promotion of healthy ageing”. [Michel, J. -P., Gusmano,
M., Blank, P.R. and Philp, Ian. (2010) Vaccination and healthy ageing : how
to make life-course vaccination a successful public health
strategy. European Geriatric Medicine, Vol.1 (No.3). pp. 155-165. ISSN
18787649]
Vaccination can play a significant preventative role, alongside other forms
of prevention such as screening, in proactively preventing diseases and
health ills before they occur, rather than reacting to them afterwards, with
drugs and other forms of treatment.
ILC-UK recommends
Healthcare professionals undertaking health check-ups of older people
should check whether their patients are up to date with their vaccines.

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
Incentivising vaccination
 An exercise performed by a focus group participant looked at the
variation between PCTs in terms of adult vaccination take up. They
found that the top five PCTs all had local incentives in place whilst
none of the bottom five did [Immune Response]
“Perhaps an incentive of £20 pounds to the GP for vaccinating would
be successful, but would it be in the public interest and would the
public trust this type of approach?” ILC-UK Focus group participant
 Small cash incentives improve HepB vaccination rates among
injecting drug users [April 2014:
http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-
6736(14)60196-3/abstract]

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
An informed consumer
“Carers should be targeted with information
about adult vaccination.”
“We should use travel vaccination clinics
and general health checks as an opportunity
to inform adults about vaccination more
generally.”
“It can be difficult for consumers to find out
what the UK immunisation guidelines are.
Not many people are going to delve into the
Green book. There should be a simplified
check list for those aged over 18.”

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
The role for employers?
 The Government and the private sector are increasingly interested in
how we extend working lives. A fear of a skill shortage and an ageing
society means that employers and Government are going to have to
look for ways to support us in the workplace for longer.
 But there have been few initiatives in the private sector which have
considered the case for adult vaccination of staff.
 Yet the vaccination of older workers against for example, the flu could
not only be cost-effective (reducing the number of days lost due to ill
health) for employers, but could also contribute to a healthier
workforce. Similarly getting shingles whilst still in the workplace can pull
people out of the workforce for very long periods.

dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change.
#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
A greater role for insurance?
 Some health insurers provide incentives for individuals to join a gym.
Putting in place similar incentives to vaccinate may prove useful.
 The Affordable Care Act in the US will providing preventative
vaccination to those in individual health plans
 One focus group participant argued that there is demand from some
insurance consumers for life and health insurance to become more
integrated and centred around the policyholder. Such a change may
result in the industry needing to reinvent its offer to meet the
demands of this new consumer. And vaccination might form part of
this offer.

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
Making vaccination more accessible. A greater role
for pharmacy?
ILC-UK believe that it is vital to
expand the range of settings which
provide vaccination to include, for
example, community pharmacies.

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
Nudging people towards vaccination
Nudge:Thaler and Sunstein
(2008)
Suggests that individuals’
actions and decisions don’t
result simply from a rational
overview of external
circumstances.
Instead they are equally likely
to be based on systems of
habitual behaviour based on
learned traits and biases.
How might we “nudge” vaccination?
• The use of ‘declination forms’ by health
services and employers could encourage
employees to think twice about turning
down vaccination.
• Play on the strong sense of civic duty which
might encourage vaccination to protect
others, particularly if advised to do so by
their physicians.
• Creating a social norm of adult vaccination
(beyond flu) through investment in
communications.
• Research should be commissioned to
explore what messages are most likely to
result in greater uptake of adult
vaccinations.

Vaccination of Health and Social Care professionals
“When I was doing the rounds as a nurse, teams used to come around
and offer vaccination to myself and other healthcare workers. But
some members of staff still refused.” ILC-UK Focus group participant
Last year, just 45.6% of UK health and social care workers were
vaccinated against flu. [Immune Response: ILC-UK]
Levels of vaccination of healthcare professionals varies significantly by
NHS Trust. In 2011, some trusts achieve almost 95% coverage of staff
whilst others only achieved around 5% of staff vaccinated against
seasonal flu. [Immune Response: ILC-UK]

#adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda
A need to know more
There is limited research which explores adult vaccination. Where it
does exist it is dominated by research on influenza.
The WHO Global Vaccines Action plan urged Governments to
“Encourage and support research on vaccines and vaccination issues”.
It is important that the Government continues to support such
research.[http://www.who.int/immunization/global_vaccine_action_pl
an/en/]
ILC-UK recommends: The Government, industry and other research
funders should ensure there is adequate research on the potential and
efficacy of adult vaccination.

  • 6. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda In summary – Key messages  There is a strong evidence base to support a focus on immunisation as a lifecourse issue  But vaccination across the lifecourse does not get the attention it should  Policies can be patchy and inconsistent at a European level (and even within countries)  Policy makers should focus on breaking down the barriers to adult immunisation.

The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Vaccine preventable disease has a big impact Seasonal influenza: The UK reported a 2010-11 winter period more severe in terms of pressure on hospitals than during the 2009-10 pandemic winter. In 2012- 13, excess death rates were the highest since 2008-09, with peaks coinciding with influenza circulation [Public Health England. See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing] Pneumonia: UK and Slovakia have the highest reported mortality rates in Europe (25 per 100 000 population cases in 2005 and 2009).

  • 12. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Impact of vaccine preventable disease Invasive pneumococcal disease: In 2005, the UK, as well as Belgium, Ireland and Sweden, reported rates of confirmed cases which approach or are greater than 10 per 100 000. There was a similar picture in 2009 with relatively high rates in the UK and in Belgium, Finland, Ireland, Sweden and Slovenia compared to the other countries reporting. Among the countries reporting high rates, the trend is relatively static in the UK. [See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing] Pertussis: the recent increase in pertussis notifications corresponds with the availability of enhanced diagnostic methods. Since 2006, there has been greater awareness and use of these testing methods, compared to previous years. [See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing]
  • 13. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda And there is evidence for vaccination of older adults Cohort studies show that influenza vaccination provides substantial health benefits, including reduced hospitalisations, outpatient visits, mortality and antibiotics prescription among older people. [Nichol, as cited in Chlibek 2012. See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing]. A vaccination programme for older people was shown to be effective on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in the UK. Recent clinical studies also suggest vaccination with pneumococcal conjugate vaccines may provide a benefit in adults. [Jackson, as cited in Chlibek 2012. See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing ].
  • 14. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Evidence for vaccination of older adults The implementation of a herpes zoster vaccination programme for older people has the potential to improve their quality of life markedly by reducing the incidence and severity of the disease. One study, based on a randomised control trial, found a reduction in disease burden in older adults of 61% and a reduction of postherpetic neuralgia by 67%. [Oxman 2005, as cited in Chlibek 2012.

  • 15. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda We also know vaccination is cost effective  A systematic review of the relevant literature in English language on the cost- effectiveness evidence of immunisation for adults aged 50 years or over in all EU Member States was performed for the SAATI report published in November 2013.  Cost-effectiveness studies were found for 4 of the 7 key vaccine-preventable diseases in the report: herpes zoster, influenza, IPD and pneumonia. [See Adult Vaccination: A Key Component of Healthy Ageing] For these 4 diseases, studies were found for 13 EU nations that show immunisation is likely to provide a cost-effective strategy for those aged 50 years or over.

  • 16. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda And there could be significant “invest to save” return for policymakers: The SAATI/Dutch study For the 7 vaccine preventable conditions, an estimated 34,528 infectious disease cases would be avoided over a 50 year period. Approximately 5,782 premature deaths avoided over the same period. The amount of lost working days prevented over the same period was put at 127,480. Health cost savings projected to reach 6.6 million euros Lifetime tax contributions from implementing adult vaccination amounted to 537 million over the remaining life years of the cohort.

  • 18. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda The challenges: Why are we worried?  There seems a reluctance to take firmer action to improve standards of adult immunisation in Europe.  Adult vaccination remains an underused public health strategy to promote healthy ageing.  Few EU countries operate a comprehensive adult immunisation schedule. Countries often recommend vaccination to at-risk groups, whilst age-based recommendations – which allow individuals to self- assess their status – are not applied for all vaccine preventable diseases.  Adult vaccination coverage rates are often low and vary across European countries. They are also significantly lower than early childhood vaccination rates. In addition, Central and Eastern European countries often perform less well than Western Europe in terms of uptake results.
  • 19. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Why doesn’t adult immunisation get the attention it should?  Gaps in access to the vaccines and reimbursement;  Limited awareness of infectious diseases and vaccines in the population of all age groups;  Gaps in the promotion of adult vaccination schedules by public health authorities;  Limited leadership from healthcare professionals in recommending vaccination;  Inconsistent monitoring and surveillance systems.

  • 25. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Possible Solutions  Focus on prevention as better than cure  Review incentives to vaccination  Raise awareness among consumers  A greater role for employers  A bigger role for insurers  Ensuring vaccination is accessible  Nudging people towards vaccination  Vaccinate health and care professionals  More research  European Health and Vaccination Platform at EU level
  • 26. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Prevention is better than cure “Vaccination can provide cost-effective protection against a host of diseases throughout life, but remains an underused public-health strategy in adults for the promotion of healthy ageing”. [Michel, J. -P., Gusmano, M., Blank, P.R. and Philp, Ian. (2010) Vaccination and healthy ageing : how to make life-course vaccination a successful public health strategy. European Geriatric Medicine, Vol.1 (No.3). pp. 155-165. ISSN 18787649] Vaccination can play a significant preventative role, alongside other forms of prevention such as screening, in proactively preventing diseases and health ills before they occur, rather than reacting to them afterwards, with drugs and other forms of treatment. ILC-UK recommends Healthcare professionals undertaking health check-ups of older people should check whether their patients are up to date with their vaccines.
  • 27. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Incentivising vaccination  An exercise performed by a focus group participant looked at the variation between PCTs in terms of adult vaccination take up. They found that the top five PCTs all had local incentives in place whilst none of the bottom five did [Immune Response] “Perhaps an incentive of £20 pounds to the GP for vaccinating would be successful, but would it be in the public interest and would the public trust this type of approach?” ILC-UK Focus group participant  Small cash incentives improve HepB vaccination rates among injecting drug users [April 2014: http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140- 6736(14)60196-3/abstract]
  • 28. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda An informed consumer “Carers should be targeted with information about adult vaccination.” “We should use travel vaccination clinics and general health checks as an opportunity to inform adults about vaccination more generally.” “It can be difficult for consumers to find out what the UK immunisation guidelines are. Not many people are going to delve into the Green book. There should be a simplified check list for those aged over 18.” ILC-UK Focus group participants
  • 29. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda The role for employers?  The Government and the private sector are increasingly interested in how we extend working lives. A fear of a skill shortage and an ageing society means that employers and Government are going to have to look for ways to support us in the workplace for longer.  But there have been few initiatives in the private sector which have considered the case for adult vaccination of staff.  Yet the vaccination of older workers against for example, the flu could not only be cost-effective (reducing the number of days lost due to ill health) for employers, but could also contribute to a healthier workforce. Similarly getting shingles whilst still in the workplace can pull people out of the workforce for very long periods.
  • 30. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda A greater role for insurance?  Some health insurers provide incentives for individuals to join a gym. Putting in place similar incentives to vaccinate may prove useful.  The Affordable Care Act in the US will providing preventative vaccination to those in individual health plans  One focus group participant argued that there is demand from some insurance consumers for life and health insurance to become more integrated and centred around the policyholder. Such a change may result in the industry needing to reinvent its offer to meet the demands of this new consumer. And vaccination might form part of this offer.
  • 31. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Making vaccination more accessible. A greater role for pharmacy? ILC-UK believe that it is vital to expand the range of settings which provide vaccination to include, for example, community pharmacies.
  • 32. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Nudging people towards vaccination Nudge:Thaler and Sunstein (2008) Suggests that individuals’ actions and decisions don’t result simply from a rational overview of external circumstances. Instead they are equally likely to be based on systems of habitual behaviour based on learned traits and biases. How might we “nudge” vaccination? • The use of ‘declination forms’ by health services and employers could encourage employees to think twice about turning down vaccination. • Play on the strong sense of civic duty which might encourage vaccination to protect others, particularly if advised to do so by their physicians. • Creating a social norm of adult vaccination (beyond flu) through investment in communications. • Research should be commissioned to explore what messages are most likely to result in greater uptake of adult vaccinations.
  • 33. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda Vaccination of Health and Social Care professionals “When I was doing the rounds as a nurse, teams used to come around and offer vaccination to myself and other healthcare workers. But some members of staff still refused.” ILC-UK Focus group participant Last year, just 45.6% of UK health and social care workers were vaccinated against flu. [Immune Response: ILC-UK] Levels of vaccination of healthcare professionals varies significantly by NHS Trust. In 2011, some trusts achieve almost 95% coverage of staff whilst others only achieved around 5% of staff vaccinated against seasonal flu. [Immune Response: ILC-UK]
  • 34. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda A need to know more There is limited research which explores adult vaccination. Where it does exist it is dominated by research on influenza. The WHO Global Vaccines Action plan urged Governments to “Encourage and support research on vaccines and vaccination issues”. It is important that the Government continues to support such research.[http://www.who.int/immunization/global_vaccine_action_pl an/en/] ILC-UK recommends: The Government, industry and other research funders should ensure there is adequate research on the potential and efficacy of adult vaccination.

  • 37. The International Longevity Centre-UK is an independent, non-partisan think-tank dedicated to addressing issues of longevity, ageing and population change. #adultimmunisation @ilcuk @sinclairda In summary – Key messages  There is a strong evidence base to support a focus on immunisation as a lifecourse issue  But vaccination across the lifecourse does not get the attention it should  Policies can be patchy and inconsistent at a European level (and even within countries)  Policy makers should focus on breaking down the barriers to adult immunisation.
