Temporal population structure of invasive Group B <i>Streptococcus</i> during a period of rising disease incidence shows expansion of a CC17 clone

Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a major cause of neonatal invasive disease worldwide. In the Netherlands, the incidence of the disease increased, despite the introduction of prevention guidelines in 1999.
