AbstractOf 1,586 boys in a Naval Junior Training Establishment, 61% were inoculated in December 1971 with a bivalent vaccine containing 400 CCA units of the Hong Kong strain of influenza A virus. Approximately 4 weeks later an outbreak of influenza developed, caused by the Hong Kong virus. The overall attack rate was 9.5%. Of the unvaccinated boys 16.7% became ill, and of the vaccinated boys 4.9%. Serological evidence of infection was detected in 19% of the vaccinated boys and 59% of unvaccinated boys who became ill. It is suggested that the vaccination programme prevented at least 114 cases of influenza in the establishment.
