Abstract
Pneumococcal diseases are the first cause of bacterial infections in adult and in the aged adult. While its considerable morbi-mortality is potentially preventable through vaccination, the interest of anti-pneumococcal vaccination in these populations is still debated. Effectiveness appraisal of current anti-pneumococcal vaccines and the perspectives in terms of preventive strategies against Streptococcus pneumoniae infections in the adult population are presented.
