Abstract

The study attempts to evaluate the relationship and association between PCV-7 vaccination and nasopharyngeal acquisition of pneumococcal serotype 19A strains. The results indicate that PCV-7 was associated with an increase in the same as compared with unvaccinated controls.

Abstract

A test was conducted to determine the rates of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in young infants before and after pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) was incorporated into the childhood immunization schedule. It was seen that since PCV7 introduction, rates of IPD in young infants have decreased significantly, providing evidence that vaccinating children aged 2-23 months has led to change in pneumococcal carriage in infants too young to receive PCV7.
