An immunogenicity and safety study of combined adsorbed tetanus, low dose diphtheria and acellular pertussis vaccine (Td5ap and Td1aP) given as a school-leaving booster to 14-15-year-old children primed with a five component acellular pertussis vaccine at 3, 5 and 12 months of age, and a booster dose at 5½ years of age. - Tdap Booster study

Conditions
Two vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis will be tested and immune respons investigated in 14-15-year-old children primed with a five component acellular pertussis vaccine at 3, 5 and 12 months of age, and a booster dose at 5,5 year of age.
