| Popis: | Despite increasing risk for pneumococcal disease with advancing age, many countries recommend only a single dose of pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) for older adults. Concerns about the possibility of declining response to revaccination with age have hindered the adoption of a revaccination policy. We examined antibody responses by age after primary vaccination and revaccination in a cohort of adults aged 70–89 years. |
