Most Indonesian pilgrims are senior adults and elderly adults, who are more prone to acquire infections during the Hajj ritual. The aims of this study are to investigate the dynamics of <jats:italic>Streptococcus pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> colonization and to investigate antibiotic susceptibility of pneumococcal strains in Indonesian pilgrims. This was a prospective multi-site longitudinal study in Indonesian hajj pilgrims aged &gt;18 years old in the year 2015. Nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from the same subject before departure and upon arrival at the airport. <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> was identified using conventional and molecular approach, while antibiotic susceptibility was determined using a disk diffusion method. Among 813 Hajj pilgrims who were enrolled from five sites in this study, the prevalence of <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> carriage rates before- and after-the Hajj were 8.6% (95% CI 6.7\u201310.5%) and 8.2% (95% CI 6.4\u201310.1%), (<jats:italic>p value<\/jats:italic>: 0.844) respectively. Serotype 16F, 6A\/6B, 3, 18, and 23F were the five most prevalent serotypes before Hajj, whereas serotypes 3, 34, 13, 4, and 23F were the most prevalent serotypes after Hajj. Serotype 3 was identified as most acquired serotype during Hajj in Indonesian pilgrim. There was an increase in the percentage of isolates susceptible to co-trimoxazole after Hajj (42.9% versus 57.4%). The study provided an overview of the change of dynamics of <jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> serotype acquisition in Indonesian Hajj Pilgrims. Along with data of vaccination serotypes coverage and antimicrobial susceptibility, these findings may contribute to recommendation of vaccination and treatment policies in the future.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0246122","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,26]],"date-time":"2021-01-26T18:29:00Z","timestamp":1611685740000},"page":"e0246122","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Streptococcus pneumoniae carriage and antibiotic susceptibility among Indonesian pilgrims during the Hajj pilgrimage in 2015"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Kuntjoro","family":"Harimurti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Siti Rizny Fitriana","family":"Saldi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Esthika","family":"Dewiasty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thafsin","family":"Alfarizi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Melzan","family":"Dharmayuli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Miftahuddin Majid","family":"Khoeri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2808-5248","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Wisiva Tofriska","family":"Paramaiswari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Korrie","family":"Salsabila","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wisnu","family":"Tafroji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carolina","family":"Halim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qin","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amgad","family":"Gamil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7639-7441","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Dodi","family":"Safari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0246122.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1821","DOI":"10.3201\/eid2011.140600","article-title":"Respiratory viruses and bacteria among pilgrims during the 2013 Hajj","volume":"20","author":"S Benkouiten","year":"2014","journal-title":"Emerg Infect Dis"},{"key":"pone.0246122.ref002","unstructured":"General Authority for Statistics Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
