peer agreement (net): +1HS 2018 > Hemisferio Sur 2018 Explanation: There are different vaccines for the northern and southern hemispheres. I think they've used the English initialism SH, for southern hemisphere. In Spanish it would be HS (hemisferio sur). "Our stock of Influenza Vaccination for Southern Hemisphere (SH) 2018 is here! The composition for 2018 SH Influenza vaccine is different from the 2017-18 NH seasonal influenza vaccine due to a change in the strain of Influenzae A(H3N2) in the vaccine. " https://www.facebook.com/aicarefamilyclinic/posts/our-stock-... Obviously NH is northern hemisphere. "the selected influenza strains for the southern hemisphere season differ from those used in in the preceding northern hemisphere influenza season [...] For the SH 2018 season, the sponsor plans to supply Influvac Tetra with the 16 mm needle presentation only" https://www.tga.gov.au/sites/default/files/auspar-influenza-... "La composición de la dosis anualmente es modificada según el comportamiento epidemiológico en cada hemisferio. [...] De acuerdo con la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), en un documento difundido en setiembre del año 2017, la composición de la vacuna anti influenza estacional que se autorizará para su uso en el hemisferio sur en la temporada 2018 deberá contener, las siguientes cepas de virus influenza: [...] Sin embargo, considerando que la composición de la vacuna HS para la temporada de influenza del 2018 recomendada por la OMS en setiembre 2017 es diferente a la utilizada en la temporada anterior" https://www.mspbs.gov.py/portal/14328/vacuna-antigripal-de-e... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 mins (2018-12-26 15:28:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry, I forgot it was Spanish-English! Obviously in English it will simply be SH 2018, as it is in the Spanish text (assuming I'm right about what it means). |
