I wish people would start putting antibiotic sensitivities on the micro-organism pages. it would make treatment a hell of a lot easier.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.215.37.73 (talk) 21:16, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

message: In the Wikipedia entry for Doxycycline it is stated that it's used for treatment of H. Influenzae infections (e.g. pneumonia), but this article here doesn't mention Doxycycline at all. I am not a physician so I don't dare to edit this article, but it is obvious that it's at odds with the Wikipedia entry on Doxycycline.

thread_title:  this article deserves its own section on the vaccine 

message: The article suggests that unencapsulated H. influenzae is simply any H. influenza without a b serotype--that is, serotypes a, c, d, e and f (see second paragraph under "Diseases"). However, my understanding was that the serotype was due to the specific polysaccharide capsule of the bacteria, and that unencapsulated H. influenzae was categorized seperately as "nontypeable." Please clarify. Thewookie55 22:47, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

message: another claim to why they thought it was the cause of the common flu was because it was common to get a secondary infection of H. influ after the primary infection of the viral interstitial pneumonitis (pneumonia). Tkjazzer 01:54, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

message: With the vaccine, "the incidence of invasive Hib disease has decreased to 1.3/100,000 in children".  What was it beforehand? MartinezMD (talk) 02:24, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Incidence 

message: Not in wikipedia's domain, but, why are we calling something that isnt flu influenzae?
:Haemophilus is still called influenza because of the flu-like symptoms and pneumonia it causes. Haemophilus can also cause a form of bacterial meningitis. Malke 2010 (talk) 17:44, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Naming

message: The photo of H. influenzae on blood agar is almost certainly not Haemophilus. H. influenzae does not grow on Sheep Blood Agar due to its requirement for Hemin and NAD. It is possible that the  photo is showing an agar with Horse Blood (although I still think the colonies pictured are too large and dark in color to be believable). If so, this should be specified, because microbiologists typically use "Blood Agar" as shorthand for 5% Sheep Blood Agar. It would be more accurate to have a picture of H. influenzae on Chocolate Agar.

message: My daughter, then 14 months old, was in a trial of the vaccine being developed for HbV at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in 1975. I was just wondering why the Vandy research isn't mentioned in the papers along with Johns Hopkins and others. Marezydoats gomphrena (talk) 03:21, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  HbV trials 

message: I was reading the article, in the section "Interaction with Streptococcus pneumoniae" it's first said:  "S. pneumoniae always overpowered H. influenzae" and right after  "When both bacteria are placed together into a nasal cavity, within two weeks, only H. influenzae survives" which is the opposite.
I am not an expert, but this part lack clarity, is H. influenzae overpowered only in culture and not in the body? is it an actual error in the page? 37.183.119.244 (talk) 08:24, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks that was informative. It would be beneficial if your group learned that "bacteria" is the plural and "bacterium" is the singular. Many of the groups' contributions have been spoilt by this silly mistake. Our readers loose confidence in articles when they see these basic errors. Graham Beards (talk) 17:06, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
