Question: Before we had a Hib vaccine, the most common type of invasive Haemophilus influenzae disease was _______?
Answer: H. influenzae meningitis
Hib meningitis is the most common form of invasive Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) disease. Haemophilus Influenzae bacteria cause many types of invasive bacterial infections, which include meningitis, pneumonia, bacteremia and epiglottitis. Before the introduction of Haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate vaccines, bacterial meningitis caused by the Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) was the most common Hib-induced invasive disease; this pathogen was found as the leading cause of bacterial meningitis, particularly in young children.
