Thank you so much, Hajime, for sharing the Japanese GBS guidelines and the prospective study. Will link to them from our main website https://www.groupbstrepinternational.org/gbs-medical-articles-and-abstra...

I am glad to see that the prospective study included ultra-late-onset disease. Would you happen to know of any Japanese studies regarding GBS-caused stillbirths?

Best,
Marti
