Influenza is known to cause severe disease but the risk of developing LRTI following influenza virus infection in various populations has not been systematically reviewed.

The consequences of the introduction of various pneumococcal protein conjugate vaccines (PCV) for children and adults is poorly understood.We undertook a population-based cohort study of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in Northern Alberta (Canada) from 2000 to 2014, years spanning pre-and early PCV (2000–2004) vs PCV-7 (2005–2009) vs PCV-13 (2010–2014) time periods.We collected clinical, laboratory,...
Widespread introduction of pneumococcal conjugated vaccines (PCVs) impacted on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). However, IPD reduction may not be similar in all outcomes within IPD.We assessed PCV7/PCV13 impact on pneumococcal meningitis, bacteremic pneumonia (BP) and other (non-meningitis, non-pneumonia) IPD episodes in children <5years in Israel.A prospective, population-based, active nationwide...
