摘要
Objective: Invasive disease caused by Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), including meningitis, pneumonia, sepsis and epiglottitis, is associated with high mortality and serious neurological sequelae in children under 5 years of age. The availability of an efficacious vaccine suggests the need to perform an economic evaluation of its use. The objective of this study was to evaluate the costs and benefits of introducing a universal vaccination programme for children under 1 year of age in Spain.
