Abstract

Neisseria meningidis (Nm) has 13 serum groups, among which A, B, C, W, X and Y serogroups can cause invasive meningococcal disease (IMD). IMD caused by Nm has a global distribution. Serogroup A has been the main pathogen of global epidemic,while serogroup B and serogroup C are mainly prevalent in industrialized countries. Group W has caused IMD outbreaks in Africa, however, the cases caused by group X and group y are quite rare. At present, monovalent and multivalent meningococcal vaccines containing serogroup A, B, C, W and Y components are used worldwide. According to the epidemic characteristics of IMD in different countries, the prevalence of IMD can be significantly reduced and the transmission of Nm can be blocked by the immunization strategies of routine vaccination and mass vaccination.
