Vaccine recommendations for children and youth for the 2014/2015 influenza season
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Canadian Paediatric Society continues to encourage annual influenza vaccination for ALL children and youth ≥6 months of age. Recommendations from the National Advisory Committee on Immunization for the 2014/2015 influenza season include some important changes: Influenza vaccination is recommended for ALL individuals ≥6 months of age, with particular focus on those at high risk of influenza-related complications and their close contacts. Definitions of high-risk conditions and close contacts have not changed from those of 2013/2014.The preference for intranasal, live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) over trivalent inactivated influenza vaccines for healthy children is restricted to individuals two to six years of age. There is insufficient evidence to recommend LAIV over trivalent inactivated influenza vaccines in older children or in children with chronic health conditions; either vaccine may be used unless there are specific contraindications.Quadrivalent influenza vaccines are expected to be available for the 2014/2015 season and may be used interchangeably with trivalent vaccines. They may offer improved protection.Trivalent or quadrivalent inactivated vaccines may be used in individuals with egg allergy; LAIV has not yet been evaluated in this population and is not recommended at this time.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
