[The pneumococcal vaccine. Its efficacy in patients 55 and over].

R Marchand1.   

Abstract

Three recent articles are examined in which research using the double-blind randomised clinical trial, the case control study, and the quasi-cohort study is described. Understanding the advantages and disadvantages of these methods makes it easier to grasp the pneumococcal vaccine controversy and make an informed choice.
