Pneumococcal vaccination and otitis media in Australian Aboriginal infants: comparison of two birth cohorts before and after introduction of vaccination.

We also found that infant pneumococcal vaccination in remote Aboriginal communities was associated with, albeit with marginal significance: a) Little effect on cumulative proportions of participants experiencing, or time to first episode of OME, AOM, TMP, or CSOM. b) A reduced proportion developing CSOM at 9 months of age. c) Trends towards reduced incidence of AOM and TMP in the first 2 years of life. d) Reduced recurrence of TMP.
