The efficacy of a Vi polysaccharide typhoid conjugate vaccine (Vi-TCV) was assessed in 28,130 Malawian children who were 9 months to 12 years of age. The incidence of blood culture–confirmed typhoid fever was significantly lower among children who received Vi-TCV than among those who received a control vaccine.
