:snow_grinGROUP B STREPTOCOCCUS (GBS) IS THE UK'S COMMONEST LIFE-THREATENING INFECTION IN NEWBORN BABIES. WITHOUT PREVENTATIVE MEDICINE, GBS INFECTS APPROXIMATELY 700 BABIES A YEAR: 75 DIE & 40 SURVIVORS HAVE LONG-TERM PROBLEMS. MOST GBS INFECTIONS ARE PREVENTABLE BY OFFERING HIGHER-RISK WOMEN ANTIBIOTICS IN LABOUR. GBSS INFORMS PREGNANT WOMEN AND HEALTH PROFESSIONALS HOW TO DO THIS, SAVING TINY LIVES.
