Impact of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine on pneumococcal parapneumonic empyema.

Journal ArticleDOI
Community Surveillance of Respiratory Viruses Among Families in the Utah Better Identification of Germs-Longitudinal Viral Epidemiology (BIG-LoVE) Study
Carrie L. Byington,Kwabena Krow Ampofo,Chris Stockmann,Frederick R. Adler,Amy Herbener,Trent Miller,Xiaoming Sheng,Anne J. Blaschke,Robert Crisp,Andrew T. Pavia +9 more
