Abstract
Hind Al Hajri, Hilal Al Hashami and Salah Al Awaidy
We report three cases under two years of age, of meningitis due to Streptococcus pneumoniae in vaccinated children. Two grew non-typable strain and the third serotype 10A. All improved with no neurological sequel. Continued monitoring of the epidemiology of bacterial meningitis within the post13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine introduction is warranted.
