Which of the following is CORRECT regardingS. pneumoniae? • The MIC susceptibility breakpoint for penicillin has recently been lowered due to increased clinical failure with penicillin treatment. • Levofloxacin is the most active fluoroquinolone against S. pneumoniae • The addition of a beta-lactamase inhibitor (ampicillin-sulbactam) can overcome the penicillin resistance. • Introduction of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine has been associated with a reduction in non-penicillin susceptible invasive pneumococcal infections.
