What exactly is group A Streptococcus and what are its carriage rates? How do we pick apart those paediatric patients with viral illnesses from those with strep throat?
Emma and Christo are joined by Dr Liz Whittaker, a paediatric infectious diseases consultant in London, an academic at Imperial College and convener of the British Paediatric Allergy, Immunity and Infection Group (BPAIIG) to discuss this bacteria. They discuss whether or not to use antibiotics, understanding rashes and much more.
With your hosts, Dr Emma Lim and Dr Christo Tsilifis.
