Core Tip	With the inclusion of newer conjugate vaccines with higher number of serotypes in the immunisation schedule, literature suggests that prior immunisation with tetanus/diphtheria-containing vaccines could enhance the immunogenicity of subsequently admi-nistered glycoconjugate vaccine, a phenomenon known as “carrier priming”. This analysis provides evidence of substantial clinical protection ensued after one dose of 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine as result of carrier priming. This phenomenon could be imple-mented to enhance the immunogenicity of conjugate vaccines among vulnerable populations such as infants in resource-poor settings, travellers, immigrants and refugees.
