Identification of Streptococcus suis Meningitis by Direct Triplex Real-Time PCR, Burkina Faso. Meningitis confirmation in Burkina Faso uses PCR for detecting Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, or Hemophilus influenzae. We identified 38 cases of meningitis among 590 that were PCR-positive for 3 nonpneumococcal streptococcal pathogens, including 21 cases of Streptococcus suis. Among the country's 13 regions, 10 had S. suis-positive cases.
