Intestinal helminth co-infection is an unrecognised risk factor for increased pneumococcal carriage density and invasive disease
Abstract Infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae is the leading cause of death in children and burden of disease is greatest where helminth infections are also common. We investigated the impact of intestinal helminth co-infection on pneumococcal carriage; a risk factor for invasive disease. We used...
