serotype b (Hib) carriage among Alaska Indigenous children in the pre-Hib-vaccine era. To prevent invasive Hia disease, paediatric conjugate Hia vaccines under development have the potential to reduce carriage of Hia, and thus decrease the risk of transmission and disease among susceptible populations. Addressing the social determinants of health may further eliminate conditions favouring Hia transmission in Indigenous communities.
