Pneumocystis jiroveciiTransmission from Immunocompetent Carriers to Infant

1 Jul 2008

Abstract excerpt

We report a case of Pneumocystis jirovecii transmission from colonized grandparents to their infant granddaughter. Genotyping of P. jirovecii showed the same genotypes in samples from the infant and her grandparents. These findings support P. jirovecii transmission from immunocompetent carrier adults to a susceptible child.
