Overview <\/h3>\n

In recent years, there have been important developments in the field of typhoid fever, including updated estimates of disease
\nincidence and burden, new evidence on the effectiveness and population impact of typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCVs) following their introduction in several countries, and data on the duration of protection conferred by a single dose, including how
\nduration of protection varies by age at vaccination and the epidemiological setting. <\/p>\n

There are also additional immunogenicity
\ndata following booster doses of TCV, and there is additional evidence on the emergence and spread of antimicrobial-resistant
\nSalmonella Typhi. <\/p>\n

This document replaces the 2018 WHO position paper on typhoid vaccines and, given the new available
\nevidence, focuses primarily on TCVs.<\/p>\n
