Group B Strep Support

LONDON, December 15, 2011 - A new opinion poll has found that most young women support the introduction of a national screening programme to detect Group B Strep in pregnant women.

HAYWARDS HEATH, England, December 1, 2010 - Group B Strep Support (GBSS), the charity for the UK's biggest cause of life-threatening infection newborn babies, is urging the Government to make sensitive testing for group B Streptococcus (GBS) available for all pregnant women, as recent research shows this would save money as well as tiny babies' lives.
