- Title
A Multivalent Conjugate Vaccine for Prevention of Meningococcal Disease in Infants.
- Authors
Harrison, Lee H.
- Abstract
This editorial comments on a study in this issue testing a multivalent conjugate vaccine for the prevention of meningococcal disease in infants. The author says the study appears to offer suggestion of the vaccine's value in children but longer term studies are needed to assess side effects, any interaction with the heptavalent pneumonia vaccine which uses the same protein carrier and duration of protection.
