Abstract
⺠Infants born to HIV+ mothers have low pneumococcal antibody levels. ⺠Immune response following two PCV doses in HIV+ is similar to HIV-infants. ⺠Three PCV doses are required for good immune responses to serotype 6B and 23F. ⺠A 2 dose PCV primary-series may result in an immunity-gap during early infancy.
