Abstract
⺠No direct evidence exists for effectiveness of the new serotypes covered by PCV13. ⺠Efficacy was presumed via a putative serological correlate of protection. ⺠One dose of PCV13 showed 70% efficacy against IPD caused by new serotypes. ⺠Protection also demonstrated against individual serotypes for 7F and 19A. ⺠50% less IPD in children <2 years from one of the new serotypes since introduction.
