Influence of sex, season and environmental air quality on experimental human pneumococcal carriage acquisition

2021-10-05

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is the most common identified bacterial cause of pneumonia, and the leading infectious cause of death in children under five years of age worldwide. Pneumococcal disease follows a seasonal pattern with increased incidence during winter. Pneumonia burden is also associated with poor air quality. Nasopharyngeal carriage of the bacterium is a pre-requisite of invasive disease....
