2704. Molecular Technology to Detect Pneumococcal Colonization in Young Children Reveals Increased Prevalence of Vaccine Serotypes as Compared with Enhanced Culture Methods

BACKGROUND: Human challenge studies demonstrate enhanced sensitivity of molecular technology for identification of vaccine serotype pneumococcal (SP) carriage in PCV13 immunized adults. We hypothesized that PCV13 immunized children would similarly harbor vaccine serotypes in their nasopharynx (NP) t...
