Abstract

Five of seven serotypes in the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, introduced for infants in the US in 2000, are responsible for most penicillin-resistant infection thus a study is conducted to examine the effect of this vaccine on invasive disease caused by resistant strains. The examination revealed that rate of antibiotic-resistant invasive pneumococcal infections decreased in young children and older persons after the introduction of the conjugate vaccine, while there is an increase in infections caused by serotypes not included in the vaccine.
