    Author: Zhuo JT, Wang SS, Lan WL.
    Journal: Zhonghua Liu Xing Bing Xue Za Zhi; 1995 Aug; 16(4):228-30. PubMed ID: 7585904.
    Abstract:
    This paper presented the lesson of setting up a false immunization priority age group for leptospirosis which failed to prevent the leptospirosis outbreak. Our experience was that in the rice paddy field type endemic area the priority age group for the vaccination against leptopirosis should be 15 to 34 year olds followed by 35 years old or above. There was no preventive effect in the vaccination for the children 14 years old or yaunger, to our observation.
