Early-onset infection findings caused by Group B Streptococcus occur within 24 hours of birth (60 per cent of cases) but they may appear anytime during the first 5 days of life.

Unusual findings are also reported: among 34 infants with early-onset infection, the congenital diaphragmatic hernia was associated with GBS septicemia in two neonates; beads of perspiration were the first only clinical finding in one neonate too. Two cases of late-onset infection are also reported.
