〔記者王峻祺/宜蘭報導〕衛生福利部疾病管制署長羅一鈞今(7)天出席由陽明交通大學附設醫院舉辦的第16屆國際醫療研討會,分享台灣40年防疫治理從被動應變走向主動預防的寶貴經驗。羅一鈞會後受訪表示,各界關切的皮蛇疫苗納公費,正進行嚴謹成本效益評估,另秋冬「左流右新」打氣熱絡,呼籲民眾儘早施打,防年底用罄。
羅一鈞回顧,1982年台灣遭逢小兒麻痺大流行,逾千名幼童確診引發恐慌,美方隨後協助成立流行病學調查訓練班,厚植專業疫調人才庫;1998年腸病毒大流行凸顯多頭馬車弊端,促成檢驗、檢疫等部門整合成立疾病管制局,奠定台灣往後防疫體系一條鞭與高效協調能力的基石。
談及後疫情時代布局,羅一鈞說明,疾管署正擴大防疫防線,納入農業與環境部門及早偵測預防新興疾病,落實跨域聯防;同時著力厚植國內疫苗產業量能,推動國內疫苗廠深化國際合作,為未來可能再度爆發的全球大流行疾病預先做好自製疫苗準備,建立自主公衛韌性。
在秋冬疫苗接種方面,羅一鈞指出,為提升民眾施打信心與便利性,疾管署積極推行「左流右新」,除攜手全聯、家樂福等量販賣場設站,亦邀請藝人陳美鳳拍片加強宣導。目前整體打氣相當良好且去化迅速,提醒符合公費資格的長者與高風險族群把握機會,以免入冬或年底面臨缺劑。
針對地方選舉政見紛紛拋出皮蛇(帶狀疱疹)疫苗納公費補助,羅一鈞表示,疫苗政策須依法經客觀評估,疾管署自去年已委託專業學術機構展開成本效益分析,了解投入鉅資可為健保及社會省下的實質負擔,待評估報告出爐後,將送交ACIP專家會議討論,確認是否納入公費常態項目。
羅一鈞坦言,皮蛇疫苗價格高昂,完整施打2劑自費約需1萬5000元,對比公費流感疫苗每劑約200多元,價差懸殊。即便由國家集中大量採購,單劑恐仍高達數千元,採購總預算極為龐大,難以壓至數百元普惠規模,因此公帑挹注前,財務負擔與效益評估必須精算審慎考量。
