A global resurgence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) has been noted in children. We provide a detailed clinical and epidemiological analysis of IPD in Australian children following relaxation of nonpharmaceutical interventions against coronavirus disease 2019, revealing significant morbidity and mortality—even in vaccinated children without known predisposing risk factors. Almost half of the IPD cases were caused by serotypes not covered by the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.
