Letters to the Editor

C. GEORGE RAY M.D. and RALPH J. WEDGWOOD M.D.

We are grateful to Dr. Delta for bringing to our attention these additional reports of listeriosis in infancy. These cases add further substance to the purpose of our paper: (1) Listeriosis in infancy is not as uncommon as might appear from sporadic, isolated case reports. (2) There may be a common denominator of the disease useful to the clinician and epidemiologist. (3) "Standard" antibiotic therapy for neontal sepsis may not be the treatment of choice.
