Why the study?
Does administering oral poliovirus vaccine in mass vaccination campaigns improve immunogenicity compared to the routine vaccination program in children?
Population
254 children in Jordan
Comparison
Two mass campaign doses of oral poliovirus… vs Three, four, or five routine doses of OPV
Design

Mass OPV campaigns were associated with higher immunogenicity; leaves open whether this supports shifting routine schedules in eradication programs.
Does administering oral poliovirus vaccine in mass vaccination campaigns improve immunogenicity compared to the routine vaccination program in children?
Administering oral poliovirus vaccine doses during mass campaigns yields higher immunogenicity than adding the same number of doses to the routine schedule.
