Abstract excerpt

Penicillin has been the mainstay of treatment for meningococcal disease. Isolates of Neisseria meningitidis that are less susceptible to penicillin have been reported in several countries and in recent years have become more common. The clinical significance of this reduced susceptibility has not been investigated on a large scale. Hence, N. meningitidis isolates from culture-confirmed cases of meningococcal...
