AbstractSTILL A SERIOUS DISEASE: Despite advances in antibiotic therapy, and despite the emergence of beta-lactam-resistant strains, mortality of pneumococcal pneumonia has remained relatively unchanged. The pathogenicity of a pneumococcal strain results from an interaction between a specific host with its own capacity to "resist or yield" to the multiple virulence factors intrinsic to each S. pneumoniae strain.
