Serotype distribution and antimicrobial resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated from children in Japan, 2023
Our study revealed a higher prevalence of non-susceptibility to penicillin with MDR in the three most common non-PCV13/PCV20 serotypes 15A, 23A, and 35B, in Japan, suggesting their persistence in the PCV13 era.
