Prevalence of meningococcal carriage in children and adolescents aged 10–19 years in Chile in 2013

Prevalence of meningococcal carriage in children and adolescents aged 10–19 years in Chile in 2013

Summary: In 2011, Chile experienced an increase in the number of cases of IMD caused by Neisseria meningitidis group W. This epidemiological scenario prompted authorities to implement prevention strategies. As part of these strategies, the Institute of Public Heath of Chile conducted a cross-section...
