Seroprevalence of Bordetella pertussis antibodies and anti-pertussis antibody response after a single dose of reduced-antigen combined diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap) in pregnant Thai women

摘要

Background: Maternal immunization with tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap) has recently been implemented to prevent infant pertussis. Tdap is still not routinely recommended in Thailand, and there are limited data to support or challenge this strategy.
