Hello, Can you please help me to add something else to the next description? "The disease in focus is caused by bacteria, most commonly Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, or Haemophilus influenzae. These bacteria are highly virulent and can quickly lead to severe illness. Upon entering the body, usually through the respiratory tract, the bacteria can invade the bloodstream and cross the blood-brain barrier. Once in the central nervous system, they multiply rapidly, causing inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord (meninges). This leads to increased intracranial pressure and neurological symptoms. The bacteria typically enter the body through inhalation of respiratory droplets from an infected person. Signs and symptoms include sudden onset of high fever, severe headache, stiff neck, photophobia, nausea and vomiting, altered mental status, and seizures. Immediate treatment with intravenous antibiotics is crucial to combat the infection. Common antibiotics used include ceftriaxone, penicillin, or vancomycin. Additionally, corticosteroids may be administered to reduce inflammation and prevent complications. Supportive care, such as fluid management and pain relief, is also important" If can be without AI and short answer I will appreciate :) Thank you in advance!
