N2 - The number of notified cases of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in the 1st quarter of 2016 was substantially fewer than the previous quarter and marginally less than the number of notified cases in the 1st quarter of 2015. Overall, the decline in disease due to the serotypes targeted by the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (13vPCV) has been maintained across all age groups since the 13vPCV replaced the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (7vPCV) in the childhood immunisation program from July 2011.
