Abstract
The implementation of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) has led to a decline in vaccine-type disease. However, there is evidence that the epidemiology of non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) carriage and disease can be altered as a consequence of PCV introduction. We explored the epidemiological shifts in NTHi carriage using whole genome sequencing over a 5-year period that included PCV13 replacement of PCV7 in the UK’s National Immunization Programme in 2010. Between 2008/09 and 2012/13 (October to March), nasopharyngeal swabs were taken from children
