Summary
This study is designed to 1) describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of V114 and Prevnar 13™ in pneumococcal vaccine-naïve adults infected with HIV and to 2) describe the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of PNEUMOVAX™23 when administered 8 weeks after receipt of either V114 or Prevnar 13™.
