Abstract

Dear Editor, Discussing the relevance of IMMUNIZATION of foreigner RESCUERS to Haiti people, in the recent DISASTER devastating this country, Ghorbaniet al.1 in their Editorial have proposed that all RESCUERS need to be vaccinated against HEPATITIS A VIRUS (HAV) infection. As it is addressed in the above-mentioned article, RESCUERS who came from developed countries were less likely to be seropositive for HAV infection; so it is reasonable that we consider vaccination for all these RESCUERS entering Haiti and other areas with the same hygienic conditions. Although, as declared in the mentioned debate, it seems logical that vaccination of travelers to the developing countries is likely to prevent outbreaks in the national scale, evidence barely can support this presumption; current data proposes that vaccination of travelers to HAV prevalent areas, despite its high value on preventing infection in the vaccinated people, has little effect on national disease rates.
