Temporal association of infant immunisation with pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on the ecology of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae and Staphylococcus aureus nasopharyngeal colonisation in a rural South African community
Highlights • PCV immunisation at 6, 10 and 40 weeks, with no catch-up campaign, reduces vaccine serotype colonisation in infants. • Also, community-wide reduction in vaccine serotype colonisation observed among adults with a high HIV prevalence. • Temporal reduction in H. influenzae colonisation amo...

Summary: | Highlights • PCV immunisation at 6, 10 and 40 weeks, with no catch-up campaign, reduces vaccine serotype colonisation in infants. • Also, community-wide reduction in vaccine serotype colonisation observed among adults with a high HIV prevalence. • Temporal reduction in H. influenzae colonisation among children targeted for vaccination. • No changes in prevalence of S. aureus colonisation in children, whilst showing temporal decline in adults. |
