Jorvi Hospital, Espoo, Finland.

Three full-term neonates contracted a hospital infection with Salmonella panama derived from the mother of one. Two had bacteraemia and meningitis; one developed a brain abscess and the other recurrent meningitis at two months. The third neonate had gastroenteritis only. Six months later they had developed normally and two were still excreting salmonellae in the stools.
