Pathogenic cocci are a significant group of spherical bacteria responsible for various human infections. These pathogens include both Gram-positive and Gram-negative species, such as “Staphylococcus aureus”, “Streptococcus pneumoniae”, and “Neisseria gonorrhoeae”, each linked to specific diseases ranging from mild skin infections to life-threatening conditions like sepsis and meningitis. This article explores the detailed morphology, pathogenesis, mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, and public health impacts of pathogenic cocci. Understanding these organisms’ behavior, their role in disease, and their increasing resistance to treatments is crucial for developing future medical interventions.
