Abstract
⺠The 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine was introduced in 2009 in Quebec. ⺠We present the first data on the effectiveness of this vaccine. ⺠Invasive pneumococcal disease rates were lower in cohorts exposed to PHiD-CV as compared to PCV-7. ⺠There was no vaccine-type case following â¥2 PHiD-CV primary doses or one booster dose. ⺠Results are compatible with high level of protection against IPD caused by homologous serotypes.
