Two cases of type-a <i>Haemophilus influenzae</i> meningitis within the same week in the same hospital are phylogenetically unrelated but recently exchanged capsule genes

2019-05-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> H. influenzae causes common and sometimes severe pediatric disease including chronic obstructive respiratory disease, otitis media, and infections of the central nervous system. Serotype b strains, with a b-type capsule, have been the historical cause of invasive disease, and the introduction of a serotype b-specific vaccine has led to their decline. However, unencapsulated or non-b-type H. inf...
