Since 1985 Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B has been the most common causal agent, although since 1987 a progressive increase in the frequency of serogroup C has been observed, especially in the South and the Southeast, where in some states these two serogroups occur with about the same frequency. Other important causes of meningitis are pneumococcal infections (responsible for 6% of all meningitis cases), Haemophilus influenzae type B (5%), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (2%), and viral infections (30%).
