Pneumococcal meningitis is caused by bacteria, as are meningococcal meningitis (Neisseria meningitidis) and haemophilus influenzae meningitis, and is spread through the air (by coughs and sneezes), although most children are what are known as healthy carriers.
La meningitis neumocócica es bacterial, como lo son la meningocócica (Neisseria meningitidis) y la Hemophilus influenzae, y su contagio se produce por vía respiratoria (basta un estornudo o un golpe de tos), siendo la mayor parte de los niños portadores sanos.not-set not-set
