Belgian consensus on pneumococcal vaccine. Working Party on Pneumococcal Vaccine

Acta Clinica Belgica

Abstract

An ad hoc working party on pneumococcal vaccine with representatives of the Belgian Society for Infectiology and Clinical Microbiology, the Belgian Society for Pulmonology, and a Scientific Society of General Physicians confirms the recommendations on the use of the 23-valent capsular polysaccharide pneumococcal vaccine, as established by the "Hoge Gezondheidsraad--Conseil Supérieur d'Hygiène". The present consensus statement provides a review of the scientific data on which the indications for pneumococcal vaccine are based. These data are derived both from Belgian studies as well as from the international literature.
