For the assessment of Serotype 19A, 3 and 7F VE, participants who received either 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) or no doses of any pneumococcal vaccination were included in the reference group (No doses of PCV13). For the assessment of Serotype 19F VE, participants were included in the reference group if they received no doses of any PCV products. Persons who received PCV7 only were excluded from this analysis.
