Meningitis itself does not cause Asperger's syndrome, which is a developmental disorder that falls under the autism spectrum. Asperger's is primarily characterized by difficulties in social interaction and communication, and its exact causes are not fully understood, though genetic factors are believed to play a significant role. While meningitis can lead to various neurological complications, it does not directly lead to the development of Asperger's. However, any severe brain injury or infection in early childhood could potentially impact neurodevelopment, but this would be distinct from Asperger's itself.
