TL;DR: It is suggested that a single dose of MCC vaccine is insufficient for HIV-infected individuals 2–18 years of age after maximum immunologic and virologic benefits have been achieved with combination antiretroviral therapy.
Journal Article
Haemophilus influenzae type b polysaccharide vaccine: an efficacy study
TL;DR: This study studied cases of invasive Haemophilus influenzae type b disease ascertained through active surveillance in areas with a total population of 34 million and found a positive protective efficacy, albeit lower than the efficacy of 90% found in children 18 to 71 months of age in the Finnish prelicensure trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the usefulness of the newly described S/LS assay, which allows one to estimate HIV incidence from single serum specimens, and identifies a heterosexual population in Rio de Janeiro with a high rate of HIV transmission willing to participate in placebo-controlled vaccine trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preventing meningococcal infection in college students.
TL;DR: Future studies will need to focus on the potential vaccine prevention of the increased risk of meningitis infection in persons of high school age, particularly as new conjugate meningococcal vaccines become available.
