Cefazolin inoculum effect and methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus osteoarticular infections in children

Decrease in Pediatric Invasive Pneumococcal Disease During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Measures to limit SARS-CoV-2 transmission in 2020 reduced other viral infections. Among 7 US children's hospitals, invasive pneumococcal disease cumulative incidence decreased by 46% in 2020 vs 2017-2019. Limited droplet transmission of pneumococci and preceding viral pathogens may be responsible
