Which of the following is NOT a cause of bacterial meningitis?

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is primarily known for its role in causing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and does not directly cause bacterial meningitis. Instead, HIV can lead to opportunistic infections due to immune system compromise, but it is not a bacterial pathogen itself. Bacterial meningitis is caused by specific bacteria that can infect the meninges, leading to inflammation and associated symptoms.

In contrast, Group B Streptococcus is a common cause of meningitis in infants. Streptococcus pneumoniae and Neisseria meningitidis are well-established causes of bacterial meningitis in the general population. These three organisms are responsible for significant incidence rates of bacterial meningitis, particularly in vulnerable groups such as infants and young children. Thus, identifying HIV as a non-causative agent of bacterial meningitis is correct, as it does not fit into the category of bacteria that can lead to this condition.
