The incidence of Haemophilus influenzae meningitis in children aged less than 5 years in Austria was 9.5/10(5) (n = 42) in the year 1990, 12.4/10(5) (n = 56) in 1991 and 10.4/10(5) (n = 48) in 1992. In each of the other 5-year age groups the incidence was lower than 1/10(5). In 1992 Hib vaccine was registered and recommended for children below 5 years of age. So far no impact of immunisation has been observed on the incidence of meningitis. A new strategy must be found to improve the implementation of immunisation.
1990年,奥地利5岁以下儿童中流感嗜血杆菌脑膜炎的发病率为9.5/10⁵(n = 42),1991年为12.4/10⁵(n = 56),1992年为10.4/10⁵(n = 48)。在其他每个5岁年龄组中,发病率均低于1/10⁵。1992年,b型流感嗜血杆菌疫苗注册并推荐给5岁以下儿童。到目前为止,尚未观察到免疫接种对脑膜炎发病率产生影响。必须找到一种新策略来改善免疫接种的实施情况。
