Immunizations and Type 1 diabetes P. Graves at al, DAISY 1998 There was no difference between cases or controls in the timing or number of doses of Polio, DTP or MMR vaccines. There was no difference between cases and controls in the proportion receiving HBV, receiving HBV at birth, or age at first HBV. There was a trend towards earlier Hib immunization in cases. There is no suggestion that earlier administration of childhood vaccines would prevent BCA or type 1 DM. DAISY 1998
