3 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
Objectives The emergence and spread of nonencapsulated Streptococcus pneumoniae (NESp) is a public health concern in the post-pneumococcal conjugate vaccine era. We analyzed the prevalence, molecular characteristics, and antimicrobial resistance of NESp responsible for noninvasive infections in northern Japan.
