However, there has been no report on the immunogenicity of this vaccine in Taiwanese children. In this study, 98 children were followed up for 17 months to study the antibody responses following four doses of trivalent OPV. The results showed that, after two doses of vaccine, all children were protected against poliovirus type 1 and 2. All except two children also developed protective antibodies against poliovirus type 3. After three doses, the antibody levels in all subjects were above protective concentrations. The fourth dose, given at 18 months of age, further boosted the antibody titers. These findings show that the OPV currently used in Taiwan is highly immunogenic in Taiwanese children. |
