Abstract

Abstract M1UK is associated with current surges in invasive infection globally, partly due to increased production of superantigen SpeA. We show M1UK is now the dominant invasive emm1 lineage in New Zealand and is genomically related to community infections, suggesting measures that effectively prevent GAS-pharyngitis in children could reduce invasive disease.
