Group B streptococcus (GBS) infection is a bacterial infection that is believed to cause 1 to 2 of every 1,000 babies born in the United States to become sick or die. It should not be confused with Group A streptococcus, which commonly causes strep throat and, rarely, a potentially deadly destruction of flesh.
