Table 5.

The immune protection at week 12 against vaccine B (B/Malaysia/2506/2004-like virus)/(A/Wisconsin/67/2005(H3N2)-like virus)/A (A/New Caledonia/20/99 (H1N1)-like virus) by Hemagglutination Inhibition (HAI) test between 55 caregivers and 61 controls

Caregiver (n = 55) Control (n = 61) Total (n = 116)
p valuec = 0.345 p valuec = 0.453 p valuec = 0.820
Decline protectiona against influenza B (B/Malaysia/2506/2004-like virus)
 Responder 8 (15 %) 12 (20 %) 20 (17 %)
 Non-responder 7 (13 %) 5 (8 %) 12 (10 %
18 (33 %) 25 (41 %) 43 (37 %)
Decline protectiona against influenza A (A/Wisconsin/67/2005(H3N2)-like virus)
 Responder 9 (16 %) 16 (26 %) 25 (22 %)
 Non-responder 5 (9 %) 7 (11 %) 12 (10 %)

Decline protectiona against influenza A (A/New Caledonia/20/99 (H1N1)-like virus)
 Responder 6 (11 %) 13 (21 %) 19 (16 %)
 Non-responder 7 (13 %) 4 (7 %) 11 (9 %)
23 (42 %) 29 (48 %) 52 (45 %)

aDecline protection is defined as HAI titer at 12 weeks < HAI titer at 6 weeks

bPersist protection is defined as HAI titer at 12 weeks ≥ HAI titer at 6 weeks

cLogistic regression of immune protection against influenza vaccine is associated with caregiver/control group
