Incidence of pneumococcal disease in children ≤48 months old in the United States: 1998-2019
CONCLUSIONS: Incidence rates of IPD, ACP, and AOM decreased in children with commercial insurance and Medicaid coverage from 1998 to 2019. However, burden of disease remained substantial, with higher annual IRs for IPD and ACP for Medicaid-insured vs. commercially-insured children. IPD and inpatient ACP were most common in the youngest children 0-6 months old, followed by the 7-12-month age group.PMID:38485640 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.03.013
