What is Impact of Pneumococcal Vaccine on Pneumonia Hospitalizations in Brazil about?

This study evaluated the direct and indirect impact of the 10-valent pneumococcal vaccine on pneumonia hospitalizations in Brazil over an 18-year period. The results showed a reduction in pneumonia hospitalization rates in vaccinated age groups <1, 1-4, and 5-9 years old following vaccine introduction. Additionally, there was an indirect protective effect in older, non-vaccinated age groups, suggesting the development of herd immunity nearly a decade after the vaccine was added to Brazil
