@freakinbox @farid__jalali Group A Strep can cause disease in immunocompromised individuals. Most people with invasive disease are immunocompetent. I would say it is not a classical opportunistic infection but that depends on your definition. https://t.c

@graeme_0 @jakescottMD Influenza and others are associated with invasive group A strep. https://t.co/mbukugZKW2 https://t.co/PMFan206u1

@KashPrime Happy to be corrected but I don’t think it is a pathogen that ‘usually effects severely immune compromised kids’. Its wasn’t really factor in this Australia Surveillance study. Risk factors are related to age, indigenous status, influenza. http
