Fox News
The CDC is looking into a possible spike in cases of invasive infections among kids in the U.S. caused by the bacteria known to lead to strep throat, called group A strep.
"It is a great concern that we are seeing an increase in serious cases across many locations," added Glatt, who is also a spokesperson for the Infectious Diseases Society of America. The state of Colorado also reported two deaths among young children from the Denver area due to group A strep since Nov. 1. Experts advise treating strep throat with antibiotics to prevent a kidney complication and other complications.
The cases have been spiking across Europe and parts of the U.S.
