Re:Tantalizing but preliminary evidence of a “brain microbiome” by dustfinger on Tuesday November 13, 2018 @05:13AM (#18439932)
I do not know a lot about bacterial meningitis, but I don't believe that it actually passes through the barrier. Meningitis is caused by the inflammation of a membrane that the brain and spinal chord are encased within [1]. So it might be causing the membrane to become enflamed from the outward facing surface.
