An outbreak of severe invasive meningococcal disease due to a capsular switched Neisseria meningitidis hypervirulent strain B:cc11

21 Jul 2018

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The aim was to investigate an outbreak of invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) in Southern Sardinia. METHODS: Epidemiological and microbiological investigations were performed. The latter included antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing (WGS). RESULTS: Seven individuals with severe IMD were found to be infected with serogroup B (MenB) Neisseria meningitidis in the first...
