Abstract
Introduction: As the causative agent of meningitis, Neisseria meningitidis has different serogroups. The purpose of this study was to investigate the molecular properties of N. meningitidis strains among Iranian cases. Methods: 450 samples were collected from children under 5 years of age. Detection of Neisseria genus was done by phenotypic and genotypic methods. Multiplex PCR was used to identify the serogroups of N. meningitides. The sequencing of variable regions of porA gene was performed for detection of the subserogroups. Results: From 137 (30.44%) Neisseria isolates, 4 isolates (0.88%) belonged to N. meningitidis and 133 isolates (29.55%) belonged to other species. Multiplex PCR results showed that one isolate belonged to serogroup A while 3 belonged to serogroup B. The analysis of amplified VR1 and VR2 variable regions of porA showed 100% identity of the serogroup A strain with strain BZ83N and the serogroup B strains with strain 528 of N. meningitidis . In accordance with other findings in Asia, serogroups A and B were the most prevalent serogroups of N. meningitidis. Sequencing of variable regions of porA could identify the subserogroups of the isolates. Conclusion: sequencing of porA could be a valuable method for identification of N. meningitidis strains to be used in epidemiological studies as well as improved vaccine designs.

Abstract
Recently the term vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) used for individual which have thrombotic phenomena followed by ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine (AstraZeneca) administration against SARS coronavirus. Here we report the 27 years old healthy male and known case of G6PD deficiency which come to emergency department with progressive right calf swallow from 12 days ago and hemoptysis from a day ago. he mentioned he had administrated First dose of AstraZeneca vaccine for 3 weeks ago. He admitted with suspected pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) followed by Deep vein thrombosis (DVT). In color Doppler study there are dilation in right calf vain with elevated lab measurement d-dimer indicated DVT also in computed tomography angiography (CTA) there are some evidence of filling defect in left pulmonary branch and right inferior lobar artery which represent to PTE.

Abstract
Healthcare workers (HCW) are at an increased risk of acquiring vaccine preventable diseases (VPD) due to their higher patient exposure at the workplace. In this context, they form an important target population for vaccination. The authors of this article wanted to explore into the history of vaccination, the risk profile of the health care workers and the current vaccines recommended for the health care workers. Looking forward, vaccine uptake among the healthcare workers can be improved by measures such as conducting periodic annual health check ups and establishing written hospital vaccination policies.
