Abstract
⺠Otitis-prone children do not have impaired antibody responses to PCV7. ⺠Otitis-prone children have higher natural IgG levels to the pneumococcus than controls. ⺠A second dose of PCV7 increases IgG, but not IgA levels. ⺠Otitis-prone children getting 1 or 2 doses of PCV7 have similar IgG/A levels at one year.
