The Italy ImmunizationPlan 2017-19 recommend vaccines to these patients but aprotocol still isn’t present. Moreover, despite the availability ofeffective vaccines, coverage remained very low for manyreasons including problems with privacy. The objectives of thisstudy were a) the appliance of a shared clinical pathwaybetween the ‘‘Immunization Center of Hospital HygieneOperating Unit’’ and the ‘‘HIV/AIDS Disease Prevention,Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Infectious DiseasesOperating Unit’’ b) the increase in vaccination coverage andthe evaluation of side effects.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
