They received 3 doses of strain HM 175 HA vaccine with 360 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) units at 0, 1 and 6 months, respectively. Blood sampling for antibody and aminotransferases was performed 7 days before, then 1, 6, 7, 12, and 24 months after the first dose. The titers of antibody to HA virus were tested by radioimmunoassay and ELISA methods. All subjects became ELISA seropositive at Month 6 after two doses of vaccine. Except for one boy, 99 remained seropositive at Month 24, with a geometric mean titer of 1,148 mIU/ml. Antibody titers for females were significantly higher than those for males throughout the follow-up period. It was concluded that the inactivated HA vaccine used in the present trial was immunogenic and safe in children below seven years old. The vaccine-induced antibody persisted for at least two years in 99% of the vaccinees. |
