Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To establish at which day meningococcal C specific B cells are detectable in the blood of healthy infants following first and third immunisation with MenC Conjugate Vaccine as determined by Men C specific B-cell ELISPot assay.
Secondary Outcomes (3)
To establish how long the B cells persist in the blood
To note the difference between plasma cell response following the first and third MenC vaccination.
To determine the immune response to Neisseria meningitidis serogroup C 26-34 days after the third immunisation
