A member asked:
My 2 years old blood test come low pneumococcal 14 serotype- what that's mean. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mgt: It would be helpful to review the whole lab record and his history in context. A virtual inbox consult allows you to upload the records for assessment. His particular serotype antibody titer or response may be low. Has he had recurrent infections? The immune system is still developing and antibody responses continue to develop.
