Risk factors for carriage of Neisseria meningitidis during an outbreak in Wales.

P E Fitzpatrick1, R L Salmon, P R Hunter, R J Roberts, S R Palmer.   

Abstract

In a school outbreak of meningococcal disease in Wales, we compared risk factors for the carriage of Neisseria meningitidis B15 P1.16 with carriage of any meningococci. Students had throat swabs and completed a questionnaire. Sixty (7.9%) carried meningococci; risk for carriage was higher in those >14 years of age.
