Resumen

SOLER SONEIRA, Marta et al. The cost of vaccination throughout life in Spain. Rev. Esp. Salud Publica [online]. 2020, vol.94, 202002005.  Epub 26-Oct-2020. ISSN 2173-9110.

Background:

The evaluation of vaccination programmes using cost estimation is an essential tool for immunization policy. The aim of this study was to describe the cost of vaccination through-out life in Spain, both in healthy and risk groups persons.

Methods:

Description of cost of vaccination following the national immunization programme throughout life agreed for 2019, and the immunization programme for risk groups.

Results:

The expected cost to immunize a healthy person is 726.06 euros for a healthy woman and 625.89 euros for a healthy man, ranging from 982.99 to 1,815 euros per person in risk groups.

Conclusions:

The relatively low cost and the important benefits for health of immunization throughout life make this public health measure useful and worthwhile. Evaluation of immunization programmes should be strengthened in order to assure suitable immunization in every stage of life.
