| Description | Journal: The Pediatric infectious disease journal Sepsis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae is rare in neonates, although associated with high morbidity and mortality. We report a fatal case of invasive pneumococcal disease (NIPD) in a term neonate whose mother was healthy and did not receive any pneumococcal vaccine. Investigation of the infection source yielded negative results. Acquisition of infection through the birth canal was considered unlikely. |
