Epidemic Serogroup B Meningococcal Disease in Oregon

28 Apr 1999

Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: In 1993, Oregon's incidence of serogroup B meningococcal disease began to rise because of a highly clonal group of strains designated enzyme type 5 (ET-5), the first such increase observed in the United States. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact that the ET-5 strain has had on the epidemiology of meningococcal disease in Oregon. DESIGN AND SETTING: Epidemiologic analysis of surveillance data on Oregon...
