A large outbreak of invasive Group B Streptococcus Sequence Type 283 infection linked to physical contact of freshwater fish

1 Jan 2025

Abstract excerpt

(GBS) infection caused by the highly virulent Sequence Type 283 (ST283) strain has been linked to consumption of raw freshwater fish. In late summer 2024, enhanced surveillance in Hong Kong detected a surge of invasive ST283 cases.A retrospective case-control study was conducted involving all invasive GBS patients reported during August to September 2024. Data were collected through standardised...
