摘要：

This article reports five invasive Group B streptococcal (GBS) infections that occurred in a neonatal intensive care unit for about 3 months. This outbreak might have been associated with a prolonged GBS colonized infant and adjacent environmental contaminations. Infection control interventions prevented the additional spread of GBS infections. Copyright (C) 2019, Taiwan Society of Microbiology. Published by Elsevier Taiwan LLC.
