The graphs are based on week of isolation so numbers for the most recent weeks may not be complete. Number of reports of serotyped cases shown in the graphs are not adjusted to account for any change that may have occurred over time and between age groups in the proportion of all invasive pneumococcal disease cases that are serotyped.
The 7-valent conjugate vaccine was introduced into the childhood immunisation schedule on 4 September 2006, which corresponds with week 36 in the graphs.
