Multiple serogroups of Neisseria meningitidis. (references)

Today, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Neisseria meningitidis are the leading causes of bacterial meningitis. (references)

However, sometimes the bacteria that cause meningitis have spread to other people who have had close or prolonged contact with a patient with meningitis caused by Neisseria meningitidis (also called meningococcal meningitis) or Hib. People in the same household or day-care center, or anyone with direct contact with a patient's oral secretions (such as a boyfriend or girlfriend) would be considered at increased risk of acquiring the infection.
