a = WGS was only performed on GBS positive by an ST283 specific PCR.

b = Included one technical replicate. Where sequences from the same site were identical (based on SNP calls), only one was used. Abbreviations: No. = number, B = blood, CSF = cerebro-spinal fluid, HVS = high vaginal swab, S = superficial swabs, ND = not determined, SS = sterile site, Br = brain, E = eye, K = kidney, O = organs, M = muscle, L = liver.
