Roum Arch Microbiol Immunol. 2000 Jan-Jun;59(1-2):5-17.

Abstract

The paper is an attempt to study the effect of repeated boosters with Di-Te vaccine in positive children. The efficacy of their administration (vaccinal coverage degree, level of secreted antitoxins, the persistency of the immune response) and their influence upon the subsequent evolution of HIV infection are investigated.
