Abstract excerpt

Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A accounted for 95% of cases of meningococcal disease in China during the last century. To understand the circulation of these organisms in China over a 50-year period, 275 serogroup A meningococcal isolates collected between 1956 and 2005 were characterised by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and PorA typing. In total, 44 sequence types (STs), belonging to five hyperinvasive...
