Continuing diversification of Neisseria meningitidis W135 as a primary cause of meningococcal disease after emergence of the serogroup in 2000.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Sept 2004

Abstract excerpt

The occurrence of a clonal outbreak of serogroup W135 (of the electrophoretic type 37 [ET-37] clonal complex) meningococcal disease among Hajj pilgrims in 2000 has led to enhanced surveillance of the evolution of this particular serogroup, formerly considered rare, in invasive infections. Since the first case of meningococcal disease due to a serogroup W135 strain was detected in France in 1994, all isolates were...
