WHAT’S MISSING?<br />

You may not feel sick or have any symptoms, but approximately<br />

25% of expectant mothers unknowingly carry Group B Streptococcus<br />

(<strong>GBS</strong>). Without proper treatment during labor, <strong>GBS</strong> can infect<br />

newborns with sepsis, pneumonia, and even meningitis.<br />

Screening for <strong>GBS</strong> at 35-37 weeks of pregnancy is a simple<br />

and painless way to protect your baby’s health against<br />

serious <strong>GBS</strong>-related infections.<br />

Ask your doctor to test you for <strong>GBS</strong> with illumigene ® —<br />

so you and your baby don’t miss a thing together.<br />
