What exactly is the most common cause of meningitis in children 6months to 6 years old?
According to Goljan's Rapid Review : N.Meningitidis is most common cause of meningitis from 1 month to 18 years of age.
USMLE Rx : Strep Pneumo is most common cause for 6 months to 6 years old.
So if a 3 year old boy has meningitis, what is the most likely cause?
