PPSV23 minor change. The paragraph on pregnancy under Section 5 of the PPSV VIS has received a minor update. In the previous edition the term "is not recommended" was used in a way that could be misinterpreted to mean "should never be given." In fact, while PPSV is not routinely recommended for pregnant women it may be given under some circumstances. The previous edition may be used until stocks are depleted. (10/6/09)
