Global population structure and phase variation of serotype 12F <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> following the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine
2026-04-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> After the global deployment of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs), serotype 12F has become the predominant serotype responsible for invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) worldwide. As PCVs that include serotype 12F are gradually introduced, we aim to characterise the global population structure and genetic diversity of the 12F capsule locus using whole-genome sequencing. Capsule variants wit...
