Catch-up vaccination against Haemophilus influenzae type b in human immunodeficiency virus-infected Thai children older than 2 years old
Although most of Thai children older than 2 years are immune against Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) without prior vaccination, it may not be the case in HIV-infected children. Of 44 HIV-infected children tested before vaccination at the mean age of 36 months (range 24-84 months), 32 (73%) were...
