Overview

Before the availability of the Haemophilus influenzae serotype b (Hib) conjugate vaccine in the United States and other industrialized countries, more than one-half of Hib cases presented as meningitis with fever, headache, and stiff neck. The remainder presented as cellulitis, arthritis, or sepsis. In developing countries, Hib is still a leading cause of bacterial pneumonia deaths in children.
