  4. Bacterial Meningitis & Aplastic Anaemia What is Bacterial Meningitis? Meningitis is an infection of the fluid and membranes which cover the brain and spinal cord. Bacterial meningitis is the most serious disease of all types of meningitis. Each year there are over 1000 cases of bacterial meningitis in Canada. At least 50 types of bacteria can cause meningitis. One of the most common types of bacteria to cause meningitis is E. coli (Eschericia coli). In spite of much research, no vaccine has been developed to prevent E. coli meningitis. Critical Illness What is Aplastic Anaemia? Aplastic anaemia is an extremely serious disorder that results when the marrow fails to produce blood cells. The bone marrow is almost empty of blood forming cells and is described as hypoplastic or aplastic (Greek for low or no-growth). Anaemia results from reduced red cell production, infections are a result of reduced white cell production, and bleeding results from reduced platelet production. Aplastic anaemia may be either acquired or inherited. Aplastic anaemia occurs in both adults and children. Certain toxic chemicals, medications, viral infections and radiation exposure appear to cause aplastic anaemia, although the medical community does not know the cause of most cases of acquired aplastic anaemia.
