Abstract:
Although immunization is essential for maintaining public health, adverse events following immunization (AEFI) occur at a certain rate. Therefore, it is extremely important to conduct postimmunization safety monitoring and relief systems to ensure the safe implementation of immunizations for the public. This article summarizes the monitoring system of AEFI and the unique compensation system (so-called relief system) in Japan. In addition, current problems and issues on the AEFI monitoring and relief system will be specified, and immunization-related systems planned to be built in the future in Japan will be introduced.
