The Changing Epidemiology of Invasive Meningococcal Disease in Canada, 1985 Through 1992

1 Feb 1995

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To describe the occurrence of invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) in Canada with respect to demographic variables and characteristics of the isolated strains of Neisseria meningitidis. DESIGN: National surveillance case series. SETTING: Canada, 1985 through 1992. OUTCOME MEASURES: Morbidity and mortality. MAIN RESULTS: The incidence of IMD averaged 1.38 per 100,000 person-years, with considerable...
