Maternal Disease With Group B Streptococcus and Serotype Distribution Worldwide: Systematic Review and Meta-analyses

From the limited data available, the incidence of maternal group B streptococcal (GBS) disease in developed countries appears lower than, but comparable to, the incidence of early-onset neonatal GBS disease. There are no published data from low- and middle-income contexts.
