Vacunación en personas adultas y adultas mayores en México.

Objective. To estimate the proportion of vaccinated subjects and associated factors in adults and older adults in Mexico. Materials and methods. Analysis of data obtained from the Ensanut Continua 2021-2023 and comparison with the proportion of vaccinated subjects in Ensanut 2012. Results. Given that only 6.8% of adults and older adults in Ensanut Continua 2021-2023 and 17.7% in Ensanut 2012 could accredit their vaccination status, the analysis is based on self-report. When comparing Ensanut Continua 2021-2023 with Ensanut 2012, the proportion of vaccinated subjects according to age group and biologic was as follows: adults aged 20-59 years, tetanus: 66.87 vs. 78.08%; women of childbearing age, tetanus: 71.1 vs. 82.0%; measles/rubella: 36.8 vs. 48.5%; older adults, tetanus: 59.5 vs. 65.86%; influenza: 58.7 vs. 51.9%; pneumococcus: 34.8 vs. 45.9%. Covid-19 vaccine coverage in younger and older adults was 86.6 and 89.2%, respectively. Incomplete schedules were more prevalent in men and in people without health insurance, among adults aged 20 to 59; and in people without health insurance, among adults aged 60 years or older. Discussion. A considerable proportion of adults and older adults are not protected against vaccinepreventable diseases in 2021-2023. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
