The queen is the only ant that can lay eggs. The male antâs job is to mate with future queen ants and they do not live very long afterwards. Once the queen grows to adulthood, she spends the rest of her life laying eggs! Depending on the species, a colony may have one queen or many queens.
Streptococcal Infections (invasive group A strep, GAS) Last Reviewed: November 2011. Group A streptococci are bacteria commonly found in the throat and on the skin. The vast majority of GAS infections are relatively mild illnesses, such as strep throat and impetigo.
1 Group B strep infections can affect neonates and adults. 2  Most pregnant women who are colonized by the bacteria have no symptoms. 3  The infection can be spread to infants before or during delivery. 4  Signs and symptoms in babies may include fever, breathing problems, lethargy, and poor feeding.he incidence of GBS infection in adults increases with age, with the highest rate in adults 65 years of age and older (20-25 cases per 100,000). Although the incidence of neonatal group B strep infection has been decreasing, the incidence of group B strep infection in nonpregnant adults has been increasing.
