Treatment of Haemophilus infections depends on nature and location of the infection, but, for invasive disease, beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitors, fluoroquinolones, and 2nd- and 3rd-generation cephalosporins are used. (msdmanuals.com)
During the mid-1980s to early 1990s, a highly virulent clonal group of Haemophilus aegyptius, localized in and around the São Paulo State of Brazil, was found to be responsible for Brazilian purpuric fever, an acute septicemic fulminant illness affecting children. (wikipedia.org)
