摘要: The World Health Organization estimates that every year, one million neonatal deaths occur because of infection. Furthermore, an equal number stillbirths are thought to be caused by infections. Here we discuss the role Streptococcus agalactiae (group B Streptococcus, GBS) in disease and stillbirth.
