Serotype distribution and penicillin-non-susceptibility of Streptococcus pneumoniae causing invasive diseases in Kuwait: A 10-year study of impact of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Despite high 1-dose vaccination coverage, breakthrough varicella infections still occur. Therefore, 2-dose vaccination is recommended to enhance the immune response to the virus. However, the reported incremental vaccine effectiveness (VE) of 2-dose vaccination varies widely among studies. METHODS:To determ...
