Immunological Links to Nonspecific Effects of DTwP and BCG Vaccines on Infant Mortality by Mogens Helweg Claesson

“…From an immunological point of view, we hypothesise that the adverse effects of DTwP vaccine may occur because of the Th2-polarising effect of the aluminium phosphate adjuvant in the vaccine and because intramuscular administration of the vaccine may cause chronic inflammation at the site of injection. However, the Th1-polarising effect of BCG is likely to be beneficial. …”
