  • Title: Changing epidemiology of childhood meningitis.
    Author: Subedar N, Rathore MH.
    Journal: J Fla Med Assoc; 1995 Jul; 82(7):467-9. PubMed ID: 7673880.
    Abstract:
    The changing epidemiology of meningitis at Wolfson Children's Hospital in Jacksonville between 1985 and 1994 was reviewed to determine the impact of Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccination. The cases were also straified by age. A significant decrease in the cases of Haemophilus influenzae type b meningitis was found between 1991 and 1994. This was most likely due to the introduction of conjugate Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine for young infants.
