Abstract
Haemophilus influenzae biogroup aegyptius is a cause of conjunctivitis in children. Biogroup aegyptius strains also caused fatal outbreaks of invasive disease, known as Brazilian purpuric fever (BPF), in the 1980s. BPF is fatal if untreated. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of five strains of Haemophilus influenzae biogroup aegyptius .
