To the Editor: Reduced susceptibility to ciprofloxacin of Neisseria meningitidis has been reported with increasing frequency since 1992, mainly because of mutations in the quinolone resistance determining regions (QRDRs) of the gyrase and topoisomerase IV genes [1,2]
We describe 2 clinical isolates of serogroup A N. meningitidis with reduced ciprofloxacin susceptibility that were recognized in March 2003 and April 2006 in Israel, a country with low incidence of invasive meningococcal disease (
