Known Strains
There are currently no obvious geographical, physiological or environmental explanations for the country-to-country distribution of Streptococcus agalactiae, Biotype 1, and Streptococcus agalactiae, Biotype 2. However, it is likely that the distribution will change in time possibly through trade in live fish. MSD Animal Health continues to monitor the situation, collecting and analyzing strains from new disease outbreaks.
