The pyogenic cocci are spherical bacteria that cause various suppurative (pus-producing) infections in animals. Included are the Gram-positive cocci Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes and Streptococcus pneumoniae, and the Gram-negative cocci, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis.
Many different germs can cause pneumonia, but there are five main causes: bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma (a type of bacteria that is resistant to penicillin), other infectious agents, such as fungi, and various chemicals. If you have viral pneumonia, you also are at risk of getting bacterial pneumonia. The main cause of pneumonia is the bacteria streptococcus pneumoniae. Professor Brian Duerden CBE, the chief micro-biologist at the Department of Health, said the bacteria can also cause or lead to numerous other invasive infections. It can cause other chest infections in old people as well as pneumonia, he said. It can affect young children when it can get into their blood streams. It can cause septicemia. It is also the most important cause of meningitis in very young children. In some people it can get into the sinuses and into the middle ear and cause further infection. Understanding the cause of pneumonia is important because pneumonia treatment depends on its cause.
