متن کاملImpact of the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on the incidence of childhood pneumonia

We aimed to evaluate the impact of PCV7 on the incidence of all-cause community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in children. A prospective survey was undertaken in 2008-2009 at 11 hospitals in North East England of children aged 0-16 years with radiologically confirmed pneumonia. Data were...
متن کاملIncidence of pneumonia is not reduced by pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.

متن کاملEarly impact of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on community-acquired pneumonia in children.
BACKGROUND Pneumococcal serotypes 1, 3, 5, 7F, and 19A were the most implicated in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) after implementation of 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7). In France, the switch from PCV7 to 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) occurred in June 2010. An active surveillance network was set up to analyze the impact of PCV13 on CAP. METHODS An observ...
