Researchers have confirmed that Australia experienced an intense surge in severe Strep A cases, similar to the northern hemisphere wave, despite differences in seasons and circulating respiratory viruses.

Midland artists Úna Cahill and Ciarán Mac Domhnaill have completed their community art project titled ‘Recaptured and draped’.

Researchers have successfully developed a new Strep A human challenge model, paving the way to test vaccines against the common deadly bacteria that causes sore throats, scarlet fever and skin sores.
