- Abstract
Immunization with pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) reduces nasopharyngeal colonization by Streptococcus pneumoniae. We attempted to correlate postvaccination serum serotype-specific pneumococcal anticapsular immunoglobulin (Ig) G concentrations with new acquisitions of vaccine-type (VT) serotypes and the VT-related serotype 6A.
