  • Title: [The practice guideline 'Influenza and influenza vaccination' (first revision) from the Dutch College of General Practitioners; a response from the perspective of virology].
    Author: de Jong JC.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd; 2008 Sep 27; 152(39):2111-2. PubMed ID: 18856025.
    Abstract:
    The main value of the new guideline on influenza and influenza vaccination developed by the Dutch College of General Practitioners is that it provides an update of the old version from 1993. Developments in the fields of vaccination and treatment are adequately described and clearly explained in more detail in numerous notes to the main text. Notable updates include the fact that vaccination will be recommended for people aged more than 60 years rather than 65 years in the coming season, and the introduction ofneuraminidase inhibitors. The complex virological aspects of influenza are well covered.
