Popis: The effect of a fifth dose of inactivated poliovirus vaccine was estimated in a group of recruits, belonging to the age groups comprising the individuals in Sweden who received the first, less effective poliovirus vaccines. As a rule they had received their primary immunization (3 shots) during the years 1957–59 and a fourth injection around 1963 to 64. The response to the fifth dose given in 1971 indicated that they responded well to the antibody stimulus.Even individuals without demonstrable antibodies prior to the booster reacted to a high degree with an antibody rise similar to that of a secondary response.
