Hypervirulent Clone of Group B<i>Streptococcus</i>Serotype III Sequence Type 283, Hong Kong, 1993–2012

25 Jul 2016

Abstract excerpt

We describe a hypervirulent clone of group B Streptococcus serotype III, subtype 4, sequence type 283, that caused invasive disease with a predilection for meningitis in Hong Kong during 1993-2012. The organism is associated with high mortality and increased summer prevalence and is linked to diseased fish from freshwater fish farms.
