Abstract
⺠A new recombinant vaccine against meningococci group B is under registration. ⺠We examined coverage of group X isolates emerging in Africa (no available vaccine). ⺠Vaccine components are conserved and expressed in African serogroup X isolates. ⺠Sera from vaccinated subjects killed effectively serogroup X isolates. ⺠The vaccine can further be investigated to control serogroup X outbreaks.
