Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
Nose and throat swabs were collected from 2413 healthy children aged 2 weeks to 14 years and examined for Streptococcus pyogenes: young children aged less than 5 who attended nurseries had higher carrier rates than those of the same age who did not attend day-nurseries.
