Study summary
Antibiotic consumption and antimicrobial resistance remain notoriously high in France, particularly among children below three years of age. In France, the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine was officially recommended for all children under two in 2003, and consequently changes occurred in Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype distribution. Bacterial carriage among children attending day-care centres may result from vaccine- and antibiotic-driven selective pressure with possible repercussions on the community.
