Purpose
The aim of this study is to estimate the burden of disease due to pneumococci, other bacteria and viruses in the African meningitis belt. In a defined population of a sanitary district in northern Togo, during the period 2010 to 2013, the investigators enroll patients of all age with suspected pneumonia requiring hospitalisation or suspected bacterial meningitis. Patients are evaluated by bacteriology and molecular biology techniques on blood, cerebro-spinal fluid, nasal aspirates and by chest X-ray.
