Invasive meningococcal disease in Scotland, 1994 to 1999, with emphasis on group B meningococcal disease.

Abstract

A review was carried out on 774 invasive meningococcal isolates reported to the active meningococcal surveillance system in Scotland from 1994 to 1999. This showed that serogroups B (51.7%) and C (39.2%) caused the majority of disease. The six common PorB proteins (4, 1, 15, 2B, 12, and 21) and PorA proteins (serosubtypes) (P1.4, P1.15, P1.9, P1.14, P1.7, and P1.16) accounted for 50 and 51% of all group B isolates, respectively, during the study period.
