Abstract

Three cases of meningococcal disease which occurred over a 3 year period in HIV-infected people living in the Wentworth Health Area of Sydney, Australia, are described. None of the 3 had ever received antiretroviral therapy which may have contributed to development of invasive meningococcal disease. Commun Dis Intell 2001;25:278-279.
