Invasive pneumococcal disease in Greenland [PDF]

International Journal of Circumpolar Health, 2004
The Inuit of Alaska and Canada have a higher incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease than non-inuit. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate incidence and outcome of these infections in Greenland with special reference to pneumococcal serotypes.Retrospective study of invasive pneumococcal infections in Greenland in the period 1996-2002 ...

Impact of COVID-19 Nonpharmaceutical Interventions on Pneumococcal Carriage Prevalence and Density in Vietnam

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) implemented to contain SARS-CoV-2 have decreased invasive pneumococcal disease. Previous studies have proposed the decline is due to reduced pneumococcal transmission or suppression of respiratory viruses, but the ...

Meningococcal and pneumococcal disease [PDF]

Paediatrics & Child Health, 2002
The licensure of new vaccines in 2001 in Canada means that pneumococcal and group C meningococcal infections can be added to the list of vaccine-preventable diseases. The successful control of these two diseases will require all provincial and territorial governments in Canada to add the new vaccines to their routine immunization programs ...
