Özet

Objective: Lower seroconversion rates in live attenuated measles vaccines are detected in children aged 9 months or younger. We aimed to evaluate the effect of some infant characteristics (including growth status, yogurt consumption, infectious diseases, anemia, and serum zinc and selenium levels) on primary measles vaccine failure.
