Early signals of vaccine driven perturbation seen in pneumococcal carriage population genomic data
2018-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) have reduced pneumococcal diseases globally. Despite this, much remains to be learned about their effect on pathogen population structure. Here we undertook whole genome sequencing of 660 pneumococcal strains from asymptomatic carriers to investigate population restructuring in pneumococcal strains sampled before and after PCV13 introduction in a previously vaccine-naïve setti...
