Influenza virus infection is a leading cause of pediatric hospitalization in winter, as well as respiratory syncytial virus infection. Effective methods of prophylaxis not only for high-risk patients, but also for healthy young children is indispensable. In Japan, a mass immunization program for the prevention of influenza in schoolchildren was conducted between 1962 and 1993. Vaccinating schoolchildren against influenza reduces mortality from influenza among the elderly. Moreover, the programs probably protected young children from developing severe complications of influenza.
