Abstract excerpt

After the introduction and extensive dissemination of the multidrug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae clone Spain(6B)-2 between 1989 and the early to mid-1990s, the prevalence of pneumococcal isolates expressing intermediate resistance to penicillin, mainly of capsular types 6, 19, and 23, also began to increase in Iceland. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether these isolates originated in Iceland...
