Thirty-seven specimens of wild boar sera were collected from August 2016 to March 2018 in Ishikawa prefecture, Japan. Thirty-two specimens (86.5%) were positive for neutralizing antibodies against Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV). Eight specimens (21.6%) were positive for IgM antibodies against JEV. One sample was obtained from a wild boar captured in February during the winter season. Four other serum specimens obtained during the winter season were positive using a JEV gene-specific PCR assay. Based on IgM and PCR assays, wild boars were infected with JEV during the winter season, suggesting that the prevalence of JEV antibodies in wild boars in Ishikawa is high and JEV activity is possible during winter in this region. In addition, wild boars may play an important role in the infection cycle of JEV.

A follow-up serological study was conducted involving 47 subjects who received 4 doses of diphtheria and tetanus toxoids, combined with the acellular pertussis vaccine (DTaP) together with Salk-type inactivated polio vaccine (DTaP-wIPV), until 6 years of age. All antibody levels declined more rapidly than expected within 3 years after the completion of primary vaccination with the 4th booster dose, and titers persisted until 6 years of age. The positive rate of the IgG antibody against pertussis toxin (PT) was 31.9% (15/47) at 4 years of age, 41.0% (16/39) at 5 years of age, and 40.5% (15/37) at 6 years of age. A significant increase in anti-PT antibodies was observed in 6 subjects, suggesting subclinical infection. Positive rates of antibodies against other targets did not decrease; however, titers of neutralizing antibodies against poliovirus type III decreased in a few subjects. These data suggest the need for an additional preschool booster immunization using DTaP-wIPV.
