Can we vaccinate a 2-year-old child with functional or anatomic asplenia against meningococcal disease if he has not completed a series of PCV13?

Yes. The two available quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccines, Menveo (MenACWY-CRM, GSK) and MenQuadfi (MenACWY-TT, Sanofi), may be administered at the same time as PCV13 or at any interval before or after receipt of PCV13.
