Haemophilus influenzae is a species of the Haemophilus genus. There are unencapsulated and encapsulated strains. Encapsulated strains can be classified by their capsular antigens. There are six types of encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae; a, b, c, d, e, and f.
Most strains of H.influenzae are opportunistic pathogens. Haemophilus influenzae can cause; Human meningitis, septicaemia, bronchopneumonia, conjunctivitis, epiglottitis, and otitis
