Vaccinated infants well-protected against severe pneumococcal infection in Norway
Date:7/9/2008
In most other countries, giving four doses of vaccine is common.
"Our experience shows that a three-dose programme is sufficient to give the children good protection. A three-dose programme is also advantageous because the vaccine can be administered at the same time as other vaccines in the Norwegian childhood vaccination programme. This makes it easier for both parents and the health services."
Good support from the beginning
In the first year there was already high accept of the vaccine. Of the children who were offered the vaccine in 2006, 95% had at least one dose, 90% received two doses and 80% had all three doses.
