AB Eighteen infants of mothers with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
infection were given hepatitis B vaccine at birth. Seroconversion
occurred in all 13 infants whose HIV antibody disappeared, versus one of
five HIV-infected children. The four of five HIV-infected infants who
did not mount an antibody response progressed rapidly to full-blown
acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Thus HIV-infected infants respond
poorly to hepatitis B vaccine.
