Awareness campaigns focus on informing parents, healthcare providers, and the general public about testing, prevention, and early intervention. By understanding GBS, expectant parents can request screening during pregnancy and receive necessary antibiotics during labour, significantly lowering the risk of infection in new-borns. 🍼💉

Raising awareness about Group B Strep (GBS) is vital, as every day in the UK, two families discover their new-born has a GBS infection. Each week, one baby tragically dies, while another may face lifelong disabilities. 💔
